Caching Schema Rowset Information

OLE DB Programmer's Reference

Many clients need to retrieve schema information several times during the course of a session with the server. It is strongly recommended that clients cache the schema information from all schema rowsets except MEMBERS. Although caching schema rowset information results in a slightly larger working set for the application, the gain in performance far outweighs the increase in the working set.

For more information about MEMBERS rowsets, see "MEMBERS Rowset." For more information about working with schema information, see "Using Schema Rowsets in OLE DB for OLAP" in Chapter 23: OLE DB for OLAP Objects and Schema Rowsets.
