John The implementation of a local database engine in Rebol would decrease the traffic over the connection significantly. The data could be pulled in a chunk and manipulated further locally. Since we do not expect data sets larger than 10MB even a rudimentary local engine with SQL capabilities can do the job. (Larger data sets should be manipulated on the backend)
Not going back to the backend (or original data source) every time when you start a new query can save lot of time when you have limited bandwidth.
