Both are important I would find a method that minimized memory footprint. You have to remember that your app is not the only thing running on the user's machine, and memory swaps to disk tend to be real performance killers.

>According to SYS(1016) the array version used about 8.5 meg more memory - 31,629,468 to 23,181,128. But, the big benefit of the array version is SPEED - it loads much faster. I'll stick with the VFP table version but thought I'd ask the question. With todays hardware what's more important - application speed or memory
