Hi, It's all about numbers ... do your numbers and figure out if one process dumping all options for the form is faster for your end users than dumping the pieces as they need them.
I have big a cluster(massive processing) but limited bandwidth .. so I would err on small pieces .. but if you only have one server .. then dumping all the options would likely be the best solution.
