(do you really want to close the AG
each time the user exits to the main menu? maybe, but maybe not?)


This is the million dollar question for me right now.

I had a user who was sitting on the main menu screen (no app other than menu running) but had over 500 open files. Most of the files listed actually had multiple instances listed - one logical file I counted was listed 21 times. I am assuming he built up to this number of open files through the course of the day and a dozen or more application calls, but the number seems extreme no matter how long it took him to reach it.

These open files may make it quicker for him to go back into Order Inquiry, for example, but at what point do all the open files start affecting system performance for the user or all users? Or do these open files NOT really affect system performance that much?
