Well, repositioning file pointer, for instance, to get another record from
the PF/table.
Dealing with a PF with 100.00 records are more have impact on performance,
</Carel>
100.00 or 100.000 is not a lot. I've worked with tables having hundreds of
millions records and we did it all with SQL, not a single programm with RLA
and it performed by far better, than RLA would have done, we did use commit
and all data access was transaction safe. Batch processes running on recent
hardware it doesn't help wether your cpu usage is 5% or 3%, the problem is
to use all available hardware and bring all processors to its full power -
in other words: use 100% of CPU power. Talking about interactive work, it's
not at all important, if the retrievel of maybe 100 records uses 20
milliseconds or 200 milliseconds.
