For me compiling is not longer about speed at all but it sis about control.
When you compile you control when and how updates are made. In source
structures, it iOS too easy to make a change wit h bad results. Compiling
solves that as you can create release schedules which include testing.

Every database will perform differently based on how it is written. Some
commands are compiled directly to machine code in these they may execute up to
100x faster, others require calls to the 4D engine. Some will have no

David,
I'll amplify what Jeff said by including text manipulation including web
areas.
As a rule of thumb I'd say anything your databases do that takes long
enough to put up a progress indicator (except printing and some searches)
will be faster by a factor of 3 - 20+.

Depends on your application. Is it all data entry and record manipulation? If
so, hardly any benefit will be seen from compiling.
If it's code intensive, array intensive, object intensive, etc. then you'll see
a big improvement. I'd say the differences between interpreted and compiled
