Then there is a little hope. But, just views is not the magic word. The app needs to be designed to pull down data when it is needed only. IOW, no loca data navigation, but instead, intelligent search forms that allow the user to pick what data to look at.

The fact that data access is handled in classes is going to work in your favor.
