Trigger Gotcha & Question

[Bob Larkin <blarkin@xxxxxx>]

First, the gotcha, MAKE SURE THE TRIGGER WORKS PERFECTLY BEFORE PUTTING
IT IN PRODUCTION!!!!! Reason - besides whatever problems the program
mmight have, as soon as the file is opened Update, the Trigger program
is LOCKED. You cannot replace the program until all instances of the
file file are closewd, so that the lock is released.

Now the question, is anyone aware of any performance implications of
using triggers? I realize a crappy trigger program will drag you down,
but has the trigger process itself caused any problems at your site?
