    First thank you for this app; looks great. Just wanted to get some feedback about others performance experience. I'm running this on an older laptop 1+ GB RAM, scripting 886 objects. That took about 5 minutes. Does that sound about right?

    Thanks.

      Update on last post. That took 10 minutes. (Didn't notice the time stamp at the end. Another good feature!)

      Yes, that sounds close. SQL-SMO issues a gazillion queries, so network latency can be an issue. But something in the neighborhood of an-object-per-second is what I am experiencing.

        That was my experience.  Running locally was relatively quick.  When I ran against our DataCenter (VPN connection to a remote location), the time was incredibly high - took almost 2 hours for the database I was scripting.  Ouch!  Of course, I haven't had a chance to try the new version yet and plan to do that soon.  My big concerns now are around how to branch and compare these files (typical source-control related questions).

      FYI - running against that remote server, it seems to be taking about 5 seconds per object.  I started something up a while ago against a DB where everything should be pretty well cached and it's still running.  It works, but it's really slow.  I know that if I run locally, it's quite a bit faster.  No idea if there's a way to open an SMO connection and leave it open rather than re-connecting all of the time, but if there is, that may be an option to speed things up some.

      Another update - the task finished against my remote server.  It took 2:35 minutes to script out 1,595 objects from my remote database.  Just wanted to give you an update on that.  I know latency falls into this somewhere, but this seems a little more than expected.

      I like the direction the project is heading and the functionality is great so far.  The latency issues are painful, though.
