Alen,
I saw almost the exact same question on another forum (but where I don't remember), there you gave your indexes and SQL, and seek, populate code. While your seek version was using proper indexes SQL version were not using an index. Still it is a huge difference from 1 to 10 secs. I'd supecet hardware as well.
