Speed Issues From CD-ROM

[Milan]

Hi,
 
I'm using the Valentina Xtra for Director on a CD-ROM to perform searches on
a database of approx. 60mb. Unfortunately, I'm finding the first couple of
searches painfully slow (I assume these first searches access the .dat file
and cache it?).
 
Is there any way I can speed up the search process, or compress the database
to reduce the wait time?
