Comparative training performance

Recently I started evaluating and studying SQLServer2005 Datamining capabilities, I must say that I like the simplified integration between the database and data mining world.

I was looking for any study on comparative model training performance between competitive products (SAS etc) and SQLServer2005 datamining algorithms.

Thanks

We don't have any comparative studies (for many reasons), these kind of studies would have to be done by a third party, and would in general be difficult to do side by side comparisons since the products in general do different things.

For example, we're optimized for processing multiple models at the same time on large data, which impacts performance on processing a single model on small data. Not saying we're slow on the latter case, but it's hard to make apples to apples comparisons.
