Cursor size and memory/speed

Ruslan (or anyone who knows this),

I am doing a cursor selection and am concerned only eith the final record
according to the ORDER BY of my selection (cur.current position =
cursor.recordcount)

If this is all I am doing with the cursor, does it matter significantly from
Valentina's perspective in terms of speed and/or memory use if the cursor is
500 records or 500 thousand records?

If it matters alot, I can take the time to put a bottom boundary on my
select. If it doesn't matter much, it simplifies my world greatly :-)

I don't have any really large database files to test this so I appreciate
any feedback. I'm using V4RB 1.11.

Thanks,

Keith DeLong
