Re: Get Record Creation Date

Dieter - I don't believe I compared performance between the 2 options - 
I said that journaling performance is no longer the problem it used to 
be 25 years ago, when many people rejected journaling for that reason.

As to triggers, there is a potential for a performance problem, due to 
the synchronous nature of calling triggers.

NOTE - these are mutually exclusive - they have nothing to do with one 
another.

So there was nothing where I replicated myths. Done! and Done!
