Does anyone know how fast (and stable), the individual software packages SPSS
/ SAS / SPSS Modeler / Cognos work in comparison?

It's about data processing in the terabyte range. Previously it was said
that SAS is very much faster than SPSS. I only know that SPSS several years
ago produced run-time errors in C. My own comparison of various procedures
on large data sets has only shown that SAS and SPSS are not far apart at
speed.

Does anyone have more experience with it?
