Wow, I remember our initial implementation of Vantage in 1999. Epicor
scheduled a consultant day to fly a warm body into town for a day and
charged us the full amount. In the meantime another IT person and I
broke out the installation manual, and managed to get Progress and
Vantage installed on the server. So the Epicor guy shows up on the
scheduled morning, says "oh well, nothing to do here" and wants to
leave. To do what? Go down the street and sit at the bar for 10 hours
till his flight out?!?!? For some reason the (id10t) project manager at
the company was OK with this. I at least wanted to pick his brain on
tuning Progress or other sysadmin related things. Or watch him scratch
his a$$ for the 8 hours we paid for! Wasn't till a year later, I
figured out the -B and other tuning options. 400 or so megs of
expensive in the day memory sat idle for a year while Vantage limped
along with something like a 32MB cache!
