actually no, i posted this answer before seeing the second page on the forum where you already improved on your initial answer so you can just ignore my previous post.for some reason i don't seem to be able to delete my posts 🙁
Ah! Understood. Thank you for the feedback. Just to explain my question... it wasn't in defense of what I posted. I challenge anyone and everyone to nearly any claims of performance where a test to support such a claim has not been posted with the claim. It's usually not meant to be personal. it's meant to prevent the development of myths as so many myths have been formed.
Shifting gears, the rolks at RedGate made it so you can't delete posts because a whole lot of people were deleting their posts once they 1) had and answer to the post or 2) had bad mouthed just about everyone and needed to be held accountable in public for their actions. They (folks at RedGate) decided it was better to simply not be able to delete posts and to leave such a thing only up to official RedGate moderators (mostly Steve Jones).
