Hi,

Here's my experience.

I only have a 3-5 seconds delay when opening the application, also
this particular application uses packages and a plugin architecture.
And, it doesn't matter how fast the computer is(the slowest being a
PII 233Mhz with 128MB RAM). And, the database has 220 tables, some
tables do have close to 60 fields(average would be 20), 42 domains, 11
views, 104 SPs, 239 triggers, 174 generators, 75 UDFs.

I have 42 domains.

Yes. And sometimes, I use those fields as is.

FieldEntryType=[]

When I define the TIBOQuery, I go in the ColumnAttributes tab in the
query editor and specify that the field is a boolean and what are the
checked and unchecked values are. Also, with Infopower you can use
the field as is, and specify the Checked and Unchecked values directly
in Infopower's components.
