The advantage is that one know one can access that database from 
any kind of machine and OS. Without having to install decicated 
software. My experiece is that such dedicated software that one 
is forced to install for various devices tend to be big, and 
rather slow (because many companies do not tune their software 
well, it just has to work). And normally they only make it 
available on Windows systems.

Disadvantage is, as you say, speed. I am writing a controller 
application (UNIX/X11) to address this issue myself, but, I 
consider it is best to have a good working web-based controller 
in the bottom.
