There lies the design problem.  You are thinking in the local fox data
mindset and have not considered that other engines do not work well
for working with large data sets.  Why not request the first reduction
of data be done before the entire table is downloaded?  Secondly do
you need every column of data?  The narrower your return table is the
FASTER it comes back.

I have found that if you use a go bott go top you will really raise
the speed of your data returning.
