Hi Drew, *,

Besides the file-format-issue (unknown to the simple user), Base's
performance issues are often blamed to the Java-nature of HSQLDB, so
would a pure C++ application have a better performance than a
Java-based one?

The culprit was Java ( sort of )- I should say gjc ( I think that is the
right name ) - First they where not going to give up the distro version
or OO.o so forget that, they need some of the features thast OO.o just
doesn't have yet. - but what they did allow was for me to replace the
java runtime with the actual SUN JRE - now the form opens in about 3
seconds, and the report is on the screen and finished in under 10 seconds
The bottom line is if your are hearing from Linux users that Base is
incredibly slow take a look at which java they are using, it matters.
the case you mention is a lucky one: at least OOo Base was running (slow
but running). Most problems I've seen were
* all Java-based components in OOo not running due to the non-Sun-JRE,
solution was to change to Sun's JRE
* in OOo versions build be distros, OOo Base is only module not working
at all; here the solution was replacing the distro's version by OOo's build.
Nevertheless, although IMHO the Java-slowness-complain is a prejudice,
C++ is faster than Java
