A PRG, because of lower overhead would seem to be quicker.

You could have have a situation where a C DLL might be helpful. Then again, you might not. The speed of a calulaction depends on how the data is setup prior to entering the "calculation".

For example, if your project SELECTS to locate a piece of data, A SEEK would would return the data much quicker.

Some of my projects have priced derivatives, performed "volumn" corrections for really big carbon storage assets (1200 lines of reiterative curve fitting to return a single value) - and they all screamed in VFP.

What kind of calculations are you doing? Where is the data coming from?
