>> Your formset will always instanciate those 4 forms whether the user calls on them or not.

Like all containers, formsets have AddObject() methods which means you can use the same delayed instantiation strategies that are useful for speeding up pageframes.

I think many folks here are recommending against FormSets without understanding them. Certain things, like sharing a private datasession among forms, are impossible without them.

I have a slick process here where processes having private datasessions all need to call a common report specification form. Using a FormSet I can AddObject the report specification form class at any time, and it's then a full participant in the calling process' private data session.
