While many people here will look forward to performance results on the
T2000, I can guarantee that your server money will go much further for a
reporting application with an Opteron based system. Buy a Sun Galaxy with a
pair of Opteron 275s, run Linux on it, and I predict you will see
performance 4-5 times faster than the T2000 running Solaris for handling
single queries, and 2-3 times faster when handling multiple queries.
