Support paging Enables paging on the record data for a table, which can reduce the memory usage for large tables.
  • Start Paging Record Number – enter the number of records that should be in the table before the table performs paging. Normally this would be twice the paging size.

    The minimum number is 25, and the maximum is 10,000.

  • Paging Record Size – enter the number of records to store in a table page. The minimum number is 25, and the maximum is 10,000.
  • Number of Pages to Cache – enter the number of table pages to cache in memory. This number must be 2 or more, but typically not more than 3, which conserves memory and also allows for good performance. The maximum allowed is 10 pages.
