ReportEngine Performance

I have embedded the BIRT ReportEngine into our application and have followed the documentation in regards to configuring the ReportEngine to only load one singleton instance to render my reports. I notice that Rendering reports with the same XML data set runs in 3-4 seconds in the Eclipse BIRT RCP designer using the preview tab but when run from my application it takes apprx. 30-60 seconds? this doesn't sound right. Is there anything I can do to boost performance of the ReportEngine?

Hi Kyle,

The "preview" screen only brings in a sample of data. If your dataSource is large, the preview may only include a portion of the data. This could be the difference.

Kyle... can I asked what language you've embedded the code in? We have just downloaded a trial version and are trying to find out if it can be embedded in VB.net. 
 
Thanks
