Yes, I didn't realize that I had the buffer row doing a recalc each time it
pulled a record out of the in memory cache. This isn't necessary because I
am storing the result of calculated fields in the cache as well. I intend to
accommodate those storing semi-expensive operations in calculated fields.
The only thing saved otherwise is a little bit of memory to keep a
persistent cache of the results.

This issue is something (perhaps you mentioned it previously?) I fixed last
night and will be releasing as soon as I can seal the final certifications
on the 3.6Bf sub-release. Most likely tonight or tomorrow afternoon. If you
want to preview it let me know and I'll shoot you the current sources.

I just may call it 3.6C so that we have a fresh full base release to work
from.

Also, this is pretty much going to wrap up the majority of the work that
will be done in the 3.x chain of IBO. I will still do bug fixes for it but
that is going to be it. This version is very solid and I don't anticipate
much of that either...

As for version 4.0. I hope to release a BETA in a week or two and then I
hope to have it production by the first part of January 2001.
