No, subsequent inserts are not faster. Interestingly, the browse performance
is not too bad, it is just the insert/update that is REALLY slow.

Just tried that at your suggestion. It didn't seem any faster. But since I
am attempting to use a data aware control I don't think that technique would
be very helpful anyhow.

Thanks for your input,
