I think you've answered you own question - buy a bigger DB server. Stored procs are almost always more efficent than select statements, esp. for operations on large datasets. You might look at caching more information in the application or session scopes to relieve a little of the load, but that's only going to be a stop gap - I assume the number of users/items in the system is only going to get bigger :-) -- Tom Chiverton Advanced ColdFusion Programmer Tel: +44 (0)1749 834900 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] BlueFinger Limited Underwood Business Park Wookey Hole Road, WELLS.
