It may be that by restricting the dbms from general purpose to a specific audio content management solution they can perform optimisations that allow much faster traversal and access to data. You can often make substantial speed-ups if you limit the number of ways data can be accessed. It's unlikley it would make much difference over a well-designed general purpose engine though. -- CardinalFang ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CardinalFang's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=962 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28499 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
