My company has experience a lot of crashes and hangs using
TSocketConnection and Scktsrvr. A clientdataset can't even
handle 3000 records 310 bytes /record with proper stability.
Lots of errors under 20 connections:
"Out of memory" error.
"Simpy crashes and quiet burn".
"Client crash" and "Server crash".
Our customer has invested in 4 CPU server and it really waste of time with
a whole bunch of unexpected errors.
We will switch back to basic model C/S using "Flash Filer" and
DBISAM.

We really had a bad time it but wonder how other can survive with this
Multi-Tier tool. We won't swith to DCOM because
a lot of setup trouble.

Does Manuel Parma's updated version works well in Delpho 7.0 too?

I am not sure. I have used with Delphi 5 and 6. I would certainly test on
Delphi 7.

IB/FB sends a lot of small packets, instead of Scktsrvr, that uses few
big ones, so use of Scktsrvr with data compress is more effective.
ZeBeDee gives me speed bonus of 1.1-3 times (depending of query) vs.
Scktsrvr's 8-10 times.
