@ske I think you are correct about the workaround of running appserver locally (in shared memory). There is a KB which is intended to discuss the topic of client/server database performance : knowledgebase.progress.com/.../18342 ... but that KB concludes by explaining the "APPSERVER ADVANTAGE", just as you did. It almost sounds like a capitulation, and encourages people to avoid client/server in the first place. However, these days people want their ABL logic running on another, lower-cost, tier instead of putting it all on the same hardware that is shared by the OE database. Moving this stuff to another tier also adds fault-tolerance and load-balancing. I think the new PASOE will probably run with client/server connections more frequently than "classic" appserver ever did. Anyone trying to deploy PASOE on DOCKER, for example, will probably avoid shared memory connections. Hopefully the client/server configuration will start becoming a high priority for Progress.
