Performance comparaison

I'm looking for a chart from Microsoft or 3rd party, showing the difference
of performance of SQL 2005 compared to SQL 2000 using exactly the same
hardware.
Basically, we are trying to show the management that we can have performance
gains if we go from a Windows 2000/SQL 2000, to a Windows 2003/SQL 2005
setup.
Thanks for all the help !!!

I guess you will have a hard time searching for this. A simple
comparison that tells you SQL 2005 is 7.34% faster on the same hardware
is unrealistic. Performance highly depends on the workload and the
data. There might be cases where SQL 2005 is slower - IIRC there was a
recent thread about this phenomenon.
If your SQL 2k performs well and you do not urgently need features from
SQL 2005 then just stick with 2k. My 0.02EUR.
Kind regards
