GoZync 5 makes some substantial speed improvements when pulling records by introducing Perform Script on Server (PSOS). This ''radically'' reduces the time it takes to determine which records have changed: this makes the biggest difference in cases where there are a large number of potential records but only some have changed since the last sync.
