Faster without GUI ?

[jme501]

Hi there,

starting an application under NT to process serveral SQL-statement on ORACLE-DB with GUI (just empty Form) it runs about 2 min, witout GUI (Application.ShowMainForm = FALSE) 9 secs.

I'm very happy about the speed up, but what I would like to know : Why ?

Does anybody has an Idea?

Thank and bye,

Jens

Jens,

Just a thought...do you have any datasource objects on the empty form? I think Delphi would believe it has to do the work of creating links to update visual elements (even though there are none) in that case.

Also, have you used Tqueries or just Tdatabases? There is less overhead with Tdatabases.

If there is never any user interaction required, consider writing this as a console app.
