Exactly. I acknowledge all that you say, but you are comparing a very mature 
technology base now, what, 40? years old, with a relatively new one only about 
a decade old. I still think that the ubiquity of cheap, large RAM makes 
triple/quad(/quint?) stores superior to RDBM in the long run. But as I say, I 
have given up on the prosleytizing game. The world will decide :-)    (03)
