Multi page preview slow

edited July 2008 in General
When the results of the report query produce a large result set set, Report
Builder appears to need to format all the pages before displaying the first
page. Is the a way to have report builder display start displaying
immediately?

    I just performed a simple test using RB 10.09 and the first page displayed
    immediately, while the remaining pages were generating.

    I created a Report with DataPipeline set to nil, AutoStop set to False,
    PassSetting set to psTwoPass. With this configuration RB will generate pages
    infinitely until you tell it to stop. I can preview from the designer and
    from the run-time preview form and the first page appears immediately while
    the remaining pages are generating.

    I've never seen this--RB has always shown page one before generating the
    remainder of the report.

    If you can create a demo, send it to support.
