Subject Re: [IBO] speed problems after BDE conversion for IBO
Author Jason Wharton
I'd like more information on this and even a sample app showing the BDE
being fast and IBO being slow.
IBO has all the tools to be as fast as the BDE in all cases so I'd like to
see where it may not be keeping up. It wouldn't take much for me to resolve
this if I have a concrete case to work with.

Thanks,
