My network is usually fast. It's 10/100 ethernet.
Just a small network in my home office. If I were to
copy the same data (it's just a file I'm saving in the
database) to another machine on my network, it only
takes about 2 seconds. So it's not my network.

I'm already doing this. I'm using a server-side
cursor and only requesting one record from the
database. It doesn't seem to make any difference.

I'm beginning to wonder if there's some kind of bug
with VServer that's causing this. If there is anyone
out there who can confirm it, I would be grateful.
Just try loading a few MBs of BLOB data into a server
database and see what happens when you try to read
that data. I think it's taking longer than it should.
I'm going to try splitting out my BLOB data in a .blb
file and see if anything changes.

Thanks again,
