I've hit the same problem in my current project (with a mere 10,000
records). It's the record count, not the size that's the problem. Currently
we're evaluating PDBcruncher ... this works well (5mins instead of 30+). The
only problem is that you need room on the device for both the current
database and the packed one. It's also an additional step for the user to
install the utility.
Another alternative is to pack the records into 64KB chunks and write your
own indexing logic, which isn't ideal.
I really wish Palm would address this ...
