Sure. Dont disagree. I could arrange that I get 5 records back from a SP
query instead of 1 record back per query.
And it may well be that 5 records fit in a network packet.
That is 1 round-trip rather than 5 round-trips.
But it could be that I squeeze 10 records or 20 records etc.
How do we determine this without endlessly going round some design-cycle
trying magic numbers which immediately alter if the fields in the query
alters?

Thanks
