XFOR: Migration Process is Faster on an Intel Processor (173895)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5
This article was previously published under Q173895 SUMMARY
Running the migration process on an Intel processor may be considerably
faster than running on a non-Intel CPU such as the DEC Alpha, even though
the DEC Alpha may be a faster CPU.
MORE INFORMATION
During Lotus cc:Mail and Novell GroupWise migration, 16-bit code is run as
part of the extraction phase of the migration process. Running extractors
on RISC platform computers results in significantly slower migration
performance due to 16-bit code running Intel x86 emulation mode.
Performance for the import phase of the migration process is not affected.
For maximum performance, run the migration extraction phase for Lotus
cc:Mail and Novell GroupWise on a computer with an Intel processor.
