Larry, no problem, these kinds of tests are useful things. The table view is (unlike the rest of the UI) not based on streaming or demand loading. But that just means it should be no more crappy than JUMP's equally memorybound implementation, which is not a bar we are apparently crossing. If you would send me a link to your data file offlist, it would be interesting to find out what format quirk stopped it from loading in the first place.

Apparently it didn't like something in the file, because I was able to get uDig to stop giving an error message when I tried to open the Table View by loading up the file in ArcMap and exporting it again. Actually, it might still give an error message eventually since it is still loading. There is a progress meter on the status bar that says "Fetching children of ..." that has been running for ten minutes. The FID has advanced to 5550 in all that time so it would appear to load about 500 records per minute!
I apologize to anyone on the uDig project in advance if I offend them, but I have been following the project for several years now and it seems like every time I try a new version, it still isn't ready. I am still hoping someone will come along and show that I am doing something wrong, because I am really rooting for the project and would love to use it in one of our projects.

After it loaded up, it did redraw in about a second. However, I was unable to get the table view to work on the file. I also was unable to get theming to work or even basic feature selection, so there may be some downsides to the speed.
Could someone more knowledgeable about uDig try the benchmark and see if it was just my inexperience causing these problems?
