SQL Server Performance Series -- Part III coming shortly

I'm awaiting the availability of an updated .NET/.COM zone file for performance demonstration purposes (e.g. many of the samples for part III use the whole of the .COM/.NET DNS directories as performance samples). This is public data that people can replicate themselves, rather than confidential internal or client data, or manufactured data, so I thought it a good foundation.

I hope to finish up this series in the next couple of days.

What's the status on the SQL Server Performance Series -- Part III? I still don't see it anywhere.

I just found parts I and II via Google, and they're great. Is part III still on its way?
