I've worked with another of this type of system - Alterian.
For query intensive work, as compared to well designed / indexed Oracle,
it was easily 100s of times faster.
Sure, LOADING sucks, but given the goal was occasional loads with lots
and lots of queries, it worked, and worked well.
Call me nuts, but this geek gets a thrill out of seeing others use my work.
There is nothing better than watching a person use your program for the 1st time.
I love it!!!!!
I setup my Chiropractor / Podiatrist's office network with a Linux / Samba server.
I've had to deal with 3 support calls in about 5 years.
In turn, I get a constant supply of Bextra, which would cost be about $500 a year if I had to pay for it.

It is not bull. It is tough to do, but I've done it.
Yes, I'm fully aware of the tolerance. There was a
point in my life where I would double and quadruple
my dose to keep going for for a few days. It seemed
after 3 cycles it didn't matter how much I did, it
had almost no effect.
But that was NOTHING compared to the time I mixed it
with Desoxyn, medical meth in a time release plastic
tablet.
The acid itself was "speedy", which is a sign of real LSD but you never really know. I've also done shrooms and REAL mescaline (peyote, not those silly little barrels that are too small for the required dose) . So don't bother telling me I wasn't tripping, I was.
Full trails, black basketballs, geometric colorful
bright breathing patterns on all walls, synesthesia,
a sense of moisture to everything I touched, a slight
coppery taste, an immunity to pot, hash, alcohol, etc.
Trips usually peak in 2 hours and lasted around 8,
with a soft landing in 12. This time I stayed up
for 2 days. I went to sleep. I woke up about 20 hours
later.
With FULL TRAILS! It was freaky. Full black basketballs.
I spend a month like that. I kept a normal sleep schedule
but could not go to school. I was 16 at the time.
I went to the Dr. telling him I had extreme light sensitivity
and headaches, along with the light fever.
The visual and mental effects dropped off after about 4 weeks,
and then spent another month totally burnt out, "recovering".

Their setup CD that asks you questions and lays out the partitions (even for Win) is running Linux.
