I imagine that you get some overhead if you call up some large datasets, but
that's why I can call a limited size collection from the DB - it's rarew to
need the entire recordset of data.

It's quite the opposite approach to really optimizing your queries for
lighting-quick response times from the db, but the advantage is OOP and
maintenance.  Even so, I think it could be optimized to be quite fast by
using SPs (which I do).  You can also extend this with your own methods of
grabbing data from the database that would be much faster (such as passing
in a list of ids to grab, or indicating that you'd like only a list of ids
from the db) that would keep your performance at the levels you'd like to
maintain.  But I agree with you, this is probably not the thing to use if
speed is all that matters to you.

Thanks for the writeup. That's close to what my understanding of it
was. We heavily leverage SQL with complex queries to get Oracle to do
the heavy massaging of the specific data requests. That appears to be
the opposite approach to using a DAO.

Doesn't it get pretty memory heavy and slow to process large
recordsets? I know that we (Deanna) has spent a lot of time optimizing
queries to get processing times down. And we've got hundreds of
subsites all running on the one server.
