I don't recall anyone in this thread mentioning a problem with built applications. The references that I've seen have all been in regards to the IDE.
And for what it's worth, I hadn't noticed any particular sluggishness on my somewhat older PB in post-RB 5.5.5 versions until the latest release. On 1/9/07, John Wilder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I have two main applications which are in constant daily use, and, while neither is anything like the size of Paul Rodman's, both run full screen and are quite complex, both in terms of their GUI and their functionality. Also, all displays are buffered. One is a live trading application, involving split second decisions (and, more to the point, my money), and therefore requiring fast and effective functionality. (I actually have to slow this down as it updates too quickly to be easily readable!) The other is a front end to a Valentina 1.11 db. All screen updates in response to SQL queries bar one take between 30 to 50 spots; the other clocks around 0.9secs (can't work out why this is slower). Since most who post here are either professionals and/or considerably more experienced than me, I assume their code is likely to be better/more efficient than mine. And my machine plainly doesn't meet even the minimum requirements. So what's going on here? The only thing I can think of that may be of (probably marginal?) significance is that apart from a pagepanel and an editfield in each app. all other aspects of the GUIs are custom-built from canvases. But why no problems because of what would seem to be seriously inadequate RAM? It all seems rather weird. I'm well aware that others will be working in areas where bugs / performance cause problems, but it will also be apparent that, as far as my own experience goes, REALbasic delivers exactly what (possibly naively?) I expected, and that I, for one, have no complaints.
