I have created a WebObjects command line app (uses ERXMainRunner) that generates a report for each user (40,000+) on my system and it is running too slow. I have come up with two ways to optimize it and I was wondering which you thought is better.

The report uses a table (TableA) that has a lot of fields, most of which are not relevant to the report. It also has a Text field which could be rather large.

One option is to create TableAReport that points to the same database table, but only include the few (small) fields that I need for the report. I know the downside to this is that WebObjects can get confused when there are two entities pointing to the same data, but this command line app is only run once a day, it is read only and (hopefully) only runs for a few minutes.

The other is to go to raw row fetches, but I lose some of the nice EOF stuff like traversing relationships. (TableA has two relationship I use).

Any Advice?

Thanks,
Frank
