[Quoted] I have a forms application (Version 6.0.8.12.1 ) with 10 blocks, 7 [Quoted] canvases, and a good amount of triggers. The application accesses an 8.1.7 database on Solaris 8. It's sort of a data maintenance for that allows people to create custom queries using a control block, look at data, edit it and create new records. The forms performance is ok on my machine but when I move the exacutable to two other machines I get the following problems: drawing of objects gets really wierd (numbers [Quoted] show up in the space where the down arrow of a drop down list should [Quoted] [Quoted] be), scrolling is painfully slow (you hit the down scroll arrow on a block of records and a minute later the scroll is complete... etc. [Quoted] The machines that the application is deployed on have 128 mb RAM (as apposed to my machine which has 512MB) and one machine is accessing via dsl from another state.

My questions are:
1. Is 128 MB RAM usually sufficient for a large forms application?
[Quoted] [Quoted] 2. Do you know of any guides for tuning forms apps? (aside from simply
indexing proper columns?
[Quoted] [Quoted] 3. Would putting this application on forms server and accessing it via
the web "lighten it up" on the client?
[Quoted] 4. Is forms generally a memory hog?
5. Any Ideas would really help
