Access is faster than Oracle for extremely small databases, because Jet
3.5 (at least, not sure about 4) likes to keep a mirror image of the
data in RAM. As long as your own client-based RAM is close to the size
of your dataset then your O.K.  



This is the main advantage for tiny databases. In all other respects,
Oracle is better though.
