I've discovered why some of my forms in the QFC are taking a while between clicking next/previous. One of my forms calls a webservice to obtain a list of values to display in a 'select' menu element. When I click 'next' on that form, the next form is being processed - BUT - the previous form gets built again, thus calling the webservice again. Why do all forms get compiled everytime you move to the next page? Surely there is a way to optimise this building process? Of maybe there is something I can do to reorganise my code? Would much appreciate any suggestions from experienced QFC users :)
Forms are built because QF::exportValues() method needs element objects to work. If the results of this webservice call are not expected to change too often, you can implement some form of caching.
