Indexed Subfiles and QTP

[Robert Mills]

Hi all,

Anybody out there finding that access indexed subfiles in QTP is v..e..r..y
s..l..o..w compared to non-indexed subfiles?

Take the following chunk of code:

> cancel clear
> set default
> set process limit 2000000
> set lock file update
> access *subfile
> output outfile add
>   item item1 final
>   item item2 final
> go

If the 'subfile' is a 'flat' file then it will run about 2000 times faster
that the 'indexed' file.

Am I doing something wrong OR is this a feature of PowerHouse?
