Cheap servers (quad core Intel) can send 39,.000 messages through a switch per second without breaking a sweat (measured between WinXP and 64 bit Linux both running Q9450 quad-core Intel processors @ 2.66 GHz). A disk with an average access time of 6 milliseconds can sustain 166 operations per second. What does this suggest about the future of database systems built around disks?
