| Our tests with the Informix 2.81 CSDK OLE DB provider found they were up to 30% slower at data retrieval than the ODBC drivers in the same package. So we went with the ODBC drivers. Don't know about the provider in the v2.9 CSDK. Also, I seem to recall (this was a couple years ago) there was a bug in the OLE DB provider that prevented retrieval of files from Blob fields (forget all the details) that didn't exist in the ODBC driver at the time.
