There are _so_ many issues here. Why do you need to maintain the connection and do caching? I'll admit that that SQL*NET (which AIR oracle odbc uses) can be a pig and very slow to get up to steam, but a better solution might be to use a 3rd party odbc/jdbc. Or run a data warehouse (in the _original_ sense of the term - a staging area for reporting data out of a transactional system - not specifically an OLAP system). You might also want to have a look at odbc/odbc bridge (try searching http://freshmeat.net).
