About 0.1 second maximum per record, including munging time, in win95. And that's without any lookup/index tables too. Eu is fast. I have record tags and field tags, and i search the appropriate file till the record is located, then load into a sequence until the next record tag. Then i parse what was loaded into the sequence for the field(s) i wanted. Despite being basic brute-force, it's faster than you'd expect, but times will vars some, depending on what windoze is doing. As an example, doing a lookup that requires fetching 5 records, munging them, and sending the data back thru winsocks for display in another app took 0.41 seconds.
