I just wanted to add that for anyone that has the resources/know how to do so, networking the db to a small server/unused computer is a great idea. I have a playing db with about 400k hands in it as well as a datamine db with 3mil+hands that my hud pulls from. My playing machine really lagged when I would have a bunch of tables and different sites open, even though my playing computer is a beefy quad core Xeon MacPro with 5gb of ram.
Not having your playing computer doing double time as a database server really takes a ton of stress off the machine, and pt3 runs extremely smooth without that burden.
