NT4 w2k comparison
This is a discussion about NT4 w2k comparison in the Windows Hardware category; After upgrading (caugh) to w2k from NT4 sp6 I ran a couple of bench marks. I have not changed any of the settings, disks are set to dma all round. The hardware setup did not change. everything got slower (especially the disk mark nearly 50% slower) have a look at the clibench comparison below.

Did you 'upgrade' from NT4 and install win2k over it or did you do a fresh install? I've heard win2k takes a performance hit aswell as other bad things when being upgraded from anything - a fresh install is allways best.
