philipp,

Could you provide mode details regarding you client/server connection via the internet. Band width on each side, type of application, thought behind optimizing code for the internet.

We have just set up a forms 4.5 application that connects using different ISP's with 288 modems, our server connection is a 128 ISDN.

We have noticed that by thoughtfully coding the Forms side of our application (passing complete SQL blocks rather than letting Forms parse each statment, and using server side proceedures judiciously) not to mention good use of indexes, we have an adequate performing application. We are in the process of performing some benchmarks on our application. I am however, not sure how to relate them to any broader assumptions.

If you or anyone else has any suggestions on how to benchmark this I would like to hear them.
