Maintaining the view in sync with base data is fast and optimized, but still it consumes some resources when base data changes and the view is maintained. And it consumes some additional resources when it is first populated as well. That additional cost is not high, but it exists, manifesting itself mostly in additional memory consumption: when a live view is populated, it creates some internal data in memory to help it maintain itself faster on base data changes.</p> <p class="MsoBodyText">This additional memory consumption is moderate—roughly equivalent to the amount of memory needed for the resulting list itself. So, although additional resources needed for live view functionality are light to moderate, the obvious suggestion is to use live views only where you are really interested in keeping the result of a query live, or, in other words, where you need that result more than once and the base data is changing so that the result is changing too.</p> <p class="MsoBodyText">Other than this, there are two different aspects to live view performance.</p> <a name="seealsobookmark"></a> </div> <div id="FooterContent"> <p> </p><p> </p><hr style="height: 1px"><p>Copyright (c) <script type="text/javascript"> var theDate=new Date() document.write(theDate.getFullYear()) </script> GrapeCity, inc.
