There will be an extra access to some of the catalog tables to resolve the
view. Even with the view, the difference may not be significant. If the
same statement is repeatedly submitted by the same thread, the access plan
will be cached and there will be no extra processing.

This depends on whether there is any user wait time (to scroll to the next
set that fits on the screen, etc.). If there is a good chance that the user
will not look at all the rows, then it might be better to fetch them in
batches as the user requests them.

To improve performance, I would get off NT and onto Windows 2000 or higher.
