    Are you generating a .raf file? How big is the output file that you are
    creating? Can you provide more details, we have not had reports of slow
    performance from other developers.

    When posting please always specify environment: Windows version, Delphi
    version, RB version, datbase engine, data access components, printer, etc.

    excusme for not be specific with the details, I'm using D7 RB 11.08, the
    report is generated in a XP Machine with 4 GB Ram, i'm using Advantage

    filestream to the output stream

    You might consider generating the archive in a background thread. See the
    RBuilder Help topic for TppProducer BackgroundPrintSettings.

    You could also test the performance using the latest version of Delphi.
