Disk I/O |
allow sql server async i/o enables Adaptive Server to run with asynchronous disk I/O. To use asynchronous disk I/O, enable it on both Adaptive Server and your operating system. See your operating system documentation for information on enabling asynchronous I/O at the operating system level.
Disk I/O always runs faster asynchronously than synchronously. This is because when Adaptive Server issues an asynchronous I/O, it does not have to wait for a response before issuing further I/Os.
