Hi,

just saw your post and thought I'd add my agreement to this - its not in proportion to the SQL side of things.

For us, given the low volume of report requests, we have rewriten the reports to run as RDLC using and XSD. Bit more work in the ftont end but time gains on deployment as its all bundled into the Azure deployment.

I hope MSFT sort this one out soon!

Cheers

Peter
