Hi Andi,
ASP.NET is using OLEDB, as well, and in my experiences this does not add
to much penalty to communicating with MSSQL (however obviously more
exhaustive performance tests are required). However I am wondering
whether the OLEDB way would still work on non-Windows PHP versions? If
not: Having two compatible, but internally completely different MSSQL
extensions for win32 and non-win32 sounds dangerous to me.
