Thanks John. We're seeing terrible performance on the MAC (compared to
the same query under windows), i.e 5-10 times slower. One example is a
0.6sec query on windows taking approx 5sec on the MAC.
It occurred to us that it may be classic server, since we'd heard it
was slower. A workmate downloaded the 1.5.1 source today, compiled
super-server for the MAC, and it does seem better, but probably only
by 1 second.

I have another theory, but I'll put that in another post.

Thanks
