>I don't think we should be upset by this fact (6 is slower than 5 for some operations). This is typical with any computer program. As programs become more complicated (powerful), they demand more processing power and more memory. Generally, performance of older software is better than newer software on non-state-of-the-art machines. But, more powerful machines should run the new software at similar speeds.

>>FoxPro has always gotten it's speed from doing things in memory vs. on disk. If you don't have sufficent memory, then the OS provides "virtual memory" with is really just mapped to disk. It appears that VFP 6.0 requires a larger amount of memory to do somethings, and I'm assuming they have added more overhead to some functions to provide more features and better integrity / error handling. (At least that's my story and I'm sticking to it <g>.)
If this is the case then Microsoft should change the reqmts on their box flap of VFP 6.0 to state this. The system reqmts are as follows:
PC with a 486DX/66 or higher processor, WIN95 or higher, 16MB or higher ....
It's tough to tell your clients that they need to buy a New Machine to run a new APP. New products should be more efficient, not heavier.
