I have read that you should use DescribeTypeCache as it is much faster than calling describeType directly.
I wondered how big an issue this is becuase... I noticed that the ADG uses describeType everytime it sets the value of a cell into the dataProvider at the end of an edit, so it is getting hit an awful lot, so is it going to be a significant benefit if I override the function and change to using DescribeTypeCache? tks
