[Dxbase] record load time

Mon Nov 20 16:30:22 EST 2006

I need a bit more info Art.
How fast is your computer
How much Hard drive, (I assume your .mdb file is on a hard drive)
How much ram?
Have you defragged your HD lately
Have you used the Dxbase Program Group Utility Database Compaction lately?
My 3.2 machine with 4 gigs of memory and SATA Raid drives is Less than a second.
I have 100K qsos.
