I'm sorry, but I don't share your performance raves...

I'm in the process of switching an extremely high volume Web application from local data
to SQL Server and we're seeing a slowdown of at least twice the request times compared
to running against local data using the same network paths\setup.

The need is definitely there unfortunately (stability and security), and SQL is really the
only answer to these problems, but performance is not amongst the reasons we're making the
move. The VFP engine runs circles around SQL in most situations in terms of speed.
