Database Slow Down - Closing & Reopening

Afternoon all,

We have a solution that runs locally on several iPads and have been experiencing slow down issues which I'm trying to resolve.

During the data gathering process the users create around 120 text based records and 60 photographic records.

During the process of collecting this information, the solution slows down gradually until FMGO finally crashes.

I've found that if a user exits the application and closes it fully (double tapping home button and swiping up) intermittently, it prevents the slow down and crash from happening.

I'm guessing it's a memory issue but trying to figure out how to produce the same results without having to exit the application. Would the 'Flush Cache to Disk' script step have the same effect?

Thanks in advance.

Matthew
