Is there somebody out there who can tell me whether there is some sort
of a standardized definition of that measure: *Transactions per second*.
I would appreciate some references.
Thanks

Me too, especially I'm seeking some figure about SQL query processing times for reasonable fast workstations such as Sparcs and RS6000's. Thanks in advance, Alfred >Thanks > Rupert -- -- Ir.

The most standard measure I can think of for Transactions per Second is to count the number of transactions and divide by the number of seconds :-) If you'd like to restrict yourself to database transactions, the Transaction Processing Performance Council has a couple of benchmarks defined, and they are working on a couple of others.
