I guess what I'm trying to say, is that all programming goes through
some optimization. Heck, even C++ programs have parts written in
Assembly language in order to optimize their speed-- it's just part of
the process.



Chipp,


You're right. I sent off a demo stack that showed the problem to Geoff Canyon, and he wrote back that I should add a bug to Bugzilla about RR having problems handling large numbers of text fields. But the interesting part of the process was that I did some timings before I sent the stack off and found a couple of ways that I could speed up my code significantly. Working alone is great for some things, but what I wouldn't give for someone to do a code review with once in awhile...

By the way, my tests showed that the two slowest statements with large numbers of groups and fields appear to be:

put someValue into field fieldName of group groupName

and

if there is a field fieldName of group groupName
