When opening a VFP table in a MTDLL, use of the Critical Section Support SYS(2336) is helpful (see Calvin's blog entry). Does anyone know if it is required when writing to an index table? Does anyone recommend it during writes?

Even without either of those two, a well written VFP COM dll can handle quite a load. We expect any process we include to execute in fractions of a second. For example, calls to generate dynamic HTML pages should easily handle potentially hundreds of concurrent users per second. If you need more scalability than that, then look at what the other two helper solutions bring to the table.
