I've not decided yet what settings to use. I could see that we got app. the same performance on 8.2.7 as on 0.7.25 when we used "alternative 3" the only alternative that was possible to have before 8.0.9 <br>With alternative 3 I mean "no-disk-barrier" "no-disk-flushes" and "mo-md-flushes". However this is less secure than leaving it on default settings for 8.2.7, which would be "barrier", so it boils down to what requirements we have...<br><br>br Håkan E. <br>                                            </body>
