    You really don't provide us with enough information here. 

    How big is your database, both in total size and in number of
    tables. How are those tables utilized, when they get used do you
    primarily open one table, manipulate it, then close it, or do you go
    across a bunch of tables? 

    All of these, and more will have a dramatic impact on how you set
    this stuff up.
