Thank you Mark,
This will prove to be very helpful in the case I have to switch my whole MR2012 configuration once from the Legacy to DM or back..
John,
I only tested one company (the largest) with the DM on my TEST system and decided that there was no enough performance gain to justify the move to DM... Actually it took more time to generate the same report over the DM than the Legacy connector. However, once the DM is enabled, you got a whole lot more stuff running on the server side and interfering with your GP databases, something I don't like. Plus the DM connector enables on SQL the Change Tracking for some of the DB tables... something that I ran into issues once when I was testing with the DM and couldn't figure out from where the problem came. One more reason to not use the DM to me.
Change Tracking is something that a DBA should be aware of when a database is setup and an application implemented, aside of being fully documented.
