Hi Robert!

I know absolutely nothing about UIB, but I can have a guess:

IBO loads a lot of information about the database, and if the database
design is complex whereas the actual query to execute is simple, then
it shouldn't be too difficult to find a component that executes faster
than IBO. Try a simple 'select <PK> from <table> where <PK> = <value>'
on a complex database (hundreds of tables, domains, constraints,
stored procedures etc.), and you may get UIB to conquer IBO
performance wise.
