I wasn&#8217;t sure if the difference was real, or just my weekend brain running slow, so we put together a benchmark script to see how QuickBase performs hour-to-hour and day-to-day. A QuickBase app runs the script&#160; twice per hour, logging the date, time, and duration when&#160;the script ran. An increase in script execution time corresponds [...]]]></description>
