Hi Helen,

<<< Carlos, The context of the test app was non-GUI. The point of my
comment was - don't use this component -- along with its positioned
update features and persistent fields and the additional overhead of
the IBO wrapper -- for searched operations that are invisible to the
user. >>>

That's exactly what I advise Pelle to do. But he got a point when he
compared other TDataset alternatives with IBO replacements showing a
big difference. I already came to the same conclusion comparing FIB
Plus with IBO in the past and it's a pity because most of IBO users I
know, opted by the association between IBO and other third party
components and we would like to see IBO the winner in all fields. But
I am glad because Jason said he has the intention to improve
TIBODataset component's speed.

Best regards,
Carlos Macao
