Maximum Transactions

Is there a maximum number of transactions that SQL 2000 Standard can
handle at any given time?
Is this configurable?Standard answer: It Depends
It depends upon Hardware (CPU, memory), network traffic, size of the
transactions, database traffic, query plan, what color shoes you wear, etc.
Obviously a 8 CPU/64Gb/3.4Mhz server can handle quite a few more
transactions per second than a 1 CPU/1GB 1.7mhz server.
Now go take a 'common sense' pill. ;-)

Is there a way to see the current queued transactions?
And estimate room in the queue space for a given server?|||"John Bailo" <jabailo@.texeme.com> wrote in message

sp_who active will show you active transactions and any blocked ones.

Again, not nearly enough info to go on. What are the size of your
transactions.
Lots of small ones vs lots of large ones will make a big difference.
