Just clarify a few tings on this.
This is an App running on a CD - that queries a DB which is online?
I'm guessing that part of the problem is the sheer volume of data being
passed back to the App. XML is great when there is a reasonable amount
of data to parse, is this gets significantly large,

I'm sorry, but I partially disagree with that statement based on my
experience. Components can take some time to render, sure, but for me,

Yah, agreed. I just know from experience on the various boards that
one of the most common mistakes for people to make is to update a
combo-box or data grid for each iteration of the xml parsing loop
rather than waiting until the end. That can lock up the player tight,
while if you wait
To answer your question a bit more, there are a couple of approaches.
One approach is to build in the filtering server-side, so that when
you need a subset of the data for something, you send a request to
the server, which does the filtering and only sends what is relevant
as XML. This is
Yep, the main part of the problem is the huge amount of data that it is
handling, I guess... It doesnt query a DB , we generate all the needed info,
such as catalogs for example, in the form of XML files. We did it this way
because since its an app its going to be in CDs we did not want to force
Do you need all the data beforehand?
If not, Do paging with data by getting data in chunks from your DB.
or
As you mentioned, get data on demand.
Thats how I recently solved a similar issue.

Would it be possible to format the data as JSON on the server side?
It'd be much lighter weight ...
