>>Some happy VFPapp users get their eyelashes twitch every time VFP form pops up {g}, so what was your impression on speeds in
NET with WinForms ? I saw few of those apps around here, but performance was very bad! Compared to VFP of course.
There were a few threads in UT about performance, One NET pundit in particular tried to quote performance on a PC with NET preloaded. Others compared real-life scenarios with Word, email and a few other apps already open on a typical PC of the day. On some PCs it could take 30 seconds for the Winform to display. But that was a very long time ago.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
