All database-like formats, even Shapefile's DBF, support sorting
on database level. I've never understood, why some applications
download the whole content first and

Microsoft Access is such a "problem". Some days ago, it has downloaded
700 MB of data from the database to figure out "first" and "min/max".
Access has a "pass-through" function for this to make it directly
work on database level, but it's somehow hard to handle.

But you're right. For things like sorting in calculation, there
has to be a different solution, like threaded or staged or using
"processing" toolbar only.

My system can't even handle to download 3 * 10^6 attributes :(
