Great comment Michael.  This is another pet peeve that our users complain about.

Greg,

The problem with the processing is that you have an interactive CPW that is
far less than the Batch CPW that your machine runs in.. Since MAPICS
decided that the purge must happen interactively, you are stuck..

MAPICS are you listening? This is a major problem that many customers
have.. Most don't archive because of this.. If you allow the purge to be
submitted, many customers machines full power can be used to blow through
these orders in much less time.

This weekend I archived a mere 12,000 orders.    This took 5 hours of
processing time on a very fast model 720.
This works out to be about 40 orders per minute.   This is insanely slow.

I have about 200,000 more orders to go.    Lets see..... that's about 80+
hours of processing time.     I've complained to MAPICS but they just don't
get it and are not going to do anything about it.    They have managed to
write a system that is just plain stinks.
