We are building a medium sized product with VMP. This is both my client's and my first venture into VMP, and we are seriously disappointed so far with form load speed. Initially, our forms were built on tables using the native filtering techniques built into the framework. I was convinced that converting everything to parameterized views would help things, but after converting some forms, we have found that the difference was minimal.
I am hoping to get some encouragement and speed tips, as we are afraid we might have to eventually abandon the framework because of speed issues. We can tolerate the longer time that it takes for the app to load, but some of these forms are pretty high volume and will be opened and closed all day long, and we are afraid that the speed will be unacceptable to customers. Hopefully this is an issue of technique, and not a fact of life with VMP.
I know Barbara and a few others here have built sizeable apps with VMP, can you please offer some insight? Are you happy with VMP performance? Thanks.
