Anyway, I find it hard to buy the NC reduces network traffic. Maybe it is just my ignorance.

Is this right? NCs must move data and components, which results in a higher load, no matter how small the components (and I have yet to see a java app that is comparable to an equivalent Avtive X app that has a smaller footprint).
