There's still some limits from what I see like 15meg recordsets.
Picky picky picky ... <grin>
I guess there are valid situations where huge record sets need to be retrieved all at once - but most instances I have seen in production are the result of a lack of thinking or just lazy programming. One famous instance being a group of MS SQL folks complaining about how slow the IBM i was to produce a million row result set (5 secs I think - it was some years ago now). When queried on the use of the data it was determined that they presented it to a an end user who then invariably found the row they wanted within the first 100 or so! Doh!
