Have you ever worked on an AS/400 that was resource constrained? Opening a member list could take quite a while. Searching members could bring the system to its knees. Compiling interactively would cause people to come and beat you with sticks. If you couldn't afford to upgrade your AS/400, you lived with the delays. These things are also slow on an underpowered PC. But since you can get a 3GHz PC with 1GB of RAM for around $600, that shouldn't be an issue. And if you want it to hum, you spend $1500. It's really your choice. Joe > From: Scott Klement > > When I call WDSC slow, it's not the startup time that I'm referring to. > It's the time it takes the outline to refresh.
