yet, every module always requires a million plus bucks to make run.

Yep, that's why I want to be an SAP consultant.

Seriously, SAP does things with large volumes of data that no one else can approach. Things like sub-second lookup on a 250 million invoice DB.

Not in my experience

I have had the misfortune of working with SAP for about 10 years now and have found the system to be iceberg slow and user unfriendly.

The system may be great for accountants and statisticians but for people working in trenches it is a pain in the a$$.

I can do that with SQL without breaking a sweat. SAP is a tired technology that never did work very well.
