What can slow down VB.NET windows database applications

What could be the common or possible reasons that can slow down an
VB.NET windows database (SQL Server) application. What is the normal
time needed for such an application to initialize and show is first,
start up form.

I used stored procedures for every communication with database and the
biggest DataTable I use have 80 rows and 5 columns, no images, no
multimedia, only digits and short texts.

Why it takes so long to rize in the first attempt and every other
attemp is 2 times quicker.

The same problem appears with Reports made with Crystal Report
Designer.

Crystal Report is populated with data from DataTable object, that is
populated with DataReader that is then result of ExecuteRader method
of command object that execute stored procedure. What is more, there
is so few data to print that there is only one page od report.

Thanks, Jelena

Hi,
The first time you load a .Net application, the clr has to initialize and
then will load your application. The second time around you wont see this
delay. The other reason why your app could be slow is, if you have the
database connectivity code in the formload and basically if it is
populating a datagrid then it may take a while.

I found out the same. I just wondered if there is a way to avoid such
a slow initialization, but it seems that that is so no matter how I
whrite code.

Thanks for concern, Jelena

Most of my Access database implementations have been fairly small in terms of data volume and number of concurrent users. So far I haven't had performance issues to worry about. <knock on wood> But I am curious about what techniques those of you who have done higher volume access implementations use to ensure high performance of the database in a multi-user 100mbps LAN implementation??? Thanks

Maybe I'm missing something, but it doesn't look like Microsoft writes a lot of apps in .Net (although they certainly push it for others). What does MS write using pure .Net? If applications like Symantec's antivirus, NeatReciepts or Franklin Covey's PlanPlus for Windows is any guide, .Net applications are slow and clunky. But, maybe the developers of these apps simply don't know how to write a decent app with .Net.
