Hi Peter,
Many thanks for your email, I do appreciate your comments, and no
worries, no offence taken from your email. I also would like to thank
the other members of the forum for their questions and feedback.
Insight is reasonably fast, for example while searching the patients
tables, takes around 3-5 seconds to find a single match on a 10,000
patients database, when performing crytographic operations and various
transformations is usually quite fast ( don't have numbers).
I am not familiar with Practsoft performance but I understand that their
hardware requirements are quite high end. You can run Insight on a
800Mhz PII with 500Mb of Ram in the back office with no sweat, we
believe that lean is better and more stable, less to go wrong and less
to spend.
On the topic of MD demographics, I would be very interested in having a
look at that perl code you have, it would be of great help if you can
shoot me a copy. Also if you have anything on how MD does the writing
back to its DBF file, the file locking and row level locking mechanism
(if any), it would be great.
Let me have a look at what we can do on the MD front, we might be able
to do some fastdev.
Will speak soon,
Mario.
