Hi George,

Some questions...

1) What speed of workstation and what amount of RAM on them?

2) How many workstations active with the database at any given time (average, max)?

3) What speed is the network?

4) Does the workstation with the database have other duties like printing?

5) What are the sizes of the tables involved?... Any deleted records?

6) Are you confident that Rushmore is active?

7) Is there anti-virus running on the workstations?

good luck

>Hi. I have a VFP 5 Order Entry app. that uses optimistic buffering. Works well except when there are multiple users, where saving an order is very slow. A trace shows that it sits on the TABLEUPDATE(.T.) for upto 30 seconds. Any ideas.
