Yes, i tried it but with my surprise on fast lan connection if i use
SchemaCache the performance at opening time are worse.

Yes this it's true if i use FB 1.0.x but with FB 1.5.x this index are
created automatically.
With FB 1.0.x the performance are "terrible", then i have upgraded all
my customer to FB 1.5.x

Thursday 15.03.2005 i have sended 2 small example to Jason when i
compared IBO with FIBPlus.
This samples show how long it's the time needed by IBO for preparing and
opening the same set of query compared with FIBPlus dataset component:

- IBO open all queries in 1 minute and 5 seconds
- FIBPlus open the same queries in 7 seconds

This difference are some much that i don't think that there are nothing
to do ...

Best Regards.
