As of this week we'll go across to OSG 2.x / VPB 0.9x and I'll start doing some extensive testing. > In the end the solution to better paging over the web performance will > come from a combination of better runtime paging/download performance > and better database generation tuned for lower bandwidth. Great, thanks for your explanation.
