2.0 out of 5 stars Very dated book, there is better, July 24, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Sybase Performance Tuning (Textbook Binding)

This book does not cover sp_sysmon that came out with Sybase System 11. There is a better book on the market and even the standard Sybase documentation on Performance and Tuning is better.
