I had this discussion tonight with a SQL guy and was told that I was a fool to use FM because it was a snigle threaded based app. vs. SQL which is a Multi-Threaded based app.

What defense can I provide to this?

Well IWP on FMP8SA can take a fair simultainiously sessions:

Serve data simultaneously to up to 100 web-based clients, 50 ODBC/JDBC clients, and 250 FileMaker Pro 8 and 7 clients

... if thats what he's refering to, or Filemaker server can run multi-threaded over 1 to 4 cpu's.

But he might have some cost/benefit issues ...some tend to use FM as prototyper for then to migrate it to mySQL/perl via:

FileMaker Server is multi-threaded. FileMaker Pro is single-threaded.
