    All queries will take twice the time for twice the data.

    Not really true and "It Depends" pevails a whole lot in that area. Partitioned tables can really help in that area as can properly written code and proper indexing as well as a nice solid database design and effective/regular maintenance of the database.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
