SUBJECT: Settings for Sybase and MS SQL Server

Although the TDS Packet Size parameter is surfaced in the BDE, it does not directly deal with the data stream or packets from the server. That is handled by Open Client. By the way, the TDS Packet Size should match the packet size setting as shown by sp_configure on the server. This particular setting affects performance because if the packet size the client is using is smaller than the server's packet size, it's less efficient.
