grass4.0 performance

[grassp-list@amber.cecer.army.mil]

Very interesting mail.  Could you please tell me how to get these Arkansas
Database tools?  We are beginning a project which will link databases to 
GRASS.  If it has already been done, we may not have to write all the code.

Also, I have been told several times that GRASS is not good at working with
raster maps.  This is in reference to computations, statistics, etc.  This 
is apparently the opposite of what most people think.  Which is true?
