I agree, but it sounded like the application in question was one that applied business rules to some business data. These usually involve a bunch of complex if-then-elses where you'll probably spend much more time reading the data and writing the results than processing.I am sure this may be the case in some applications, but in very heavyprocessing applications, I would have to think that the margin of overheadwould start to grow. Especially in cases where the processor was beingutilized at 100% of its capacity (though, admittedly, this is very rare withmodern 1+ ghz processors).
