Has anyone used Delphi 1 and Personal Oracle 7 under Windows NT or 3.1?

*Please* post here or e-mail me if you've had any experience at all with the combination of these products.

Q: Why?
A: We are developing a product with Delphi 1 and testing it accessing an Oracle NT server over a network. It was fine. We bought Personal Oracle and tested our software with that. Query times went up from, say, 2 seconds to 45 seconds. We were using a P100 with 24Mb RAM. We rang Borland and Oracle but neither of them could help.

So : if anyone has seen or heard of either

  1. Personal Oracle 7 being really slow (as above); or
  2. Personal Oracle 7 being usable

then *please* e-mail me!

I just want to know if there was something wrong with our setup or if this PO sluggishness is just a fact of life.

Thanks very much in advance.
