We recently updated our program to use Data Dictionary bound tables instead of free tables. But it seems like our program got a lot slower in Data Dictionary mode than in Free Table mode. Is this because of the encryption added to the Data Dictionary files, or are Data Dictionaries just a lot slower?

I think its try&error, as this depends on your type of database actions, e.g. whether you do ISAM style table navigating or sql style complex queries with multiple joins etc.

I also recommend looking in forums other than this community, e.g. stack overflow. If you're german speaking, maybe the "inoffizielles deutsches Xbase-Forum" is suitable, as they have a ADS sub forum. As it seems you're using Delphi, I strongly recommend the "Delphi Praxis". In both forums the well-known "ADS Guru" Joachim Dürr is more or less active (but definitively more active than here).
