I assume everyone is enjoying their migration efforts
these days as they make their way off their favorite
platform...

I recently ran my simple COBOL benchmarks on a Linux
production class server which we just installed
here at QSS.

(2-way XEON 2.8ghz; 6gb ram; 2x73gb 15k hw/raid-1;
4x36gb 15k hw/raid-5; SuSE Ent. 9 sp2 for 64 bit)

This box is now the fastest system I have tested.

Not reported but of interest is that this system
can sort an 800mb file (10-char key; 80 byte record)
faster than an a400-100-110 system can sort a similar
30mb file :-)

But everyone knew that would be the case...

The updated cobol timings can be found at:
