Yes I have, and so did other users of tiOPF. The Connect/Disconnect part of a database takes considerably longer than retrieving a subset of data. And with the way CGI applications work, they connect/disconnect very often (each screen refresh). I say "subset of data" because I only retrieve what I need. I NEVER do a "select * from <tablename>".
