If you really want to do selects on the fly, you might want to look into unibojects or uniobjects for java.

However, we didn't have the large library of paragraphs that we felt compelled to re-use. I didn't think it was all that slow. We did figure out how to do some neat things with Crystal though. What about calling a "pre-process" that creates a work file for reporting?
