Beware of Access if you need network performance!

The Access manual writes, aggregate functions like SUM() are processed by Access, not by the server. Imagine asking the sum of sales for a year - the client-server idea is: ask the server for the sum, and wait for one number on the network. The Access concept is: get each and every row from sales and ass the numbers on the client machine.

This will blow any Ethernet!
