 Remote Automation : Windows 3.1 client/ Windows NT Server

        Has anybody had any successes in implementing enterprise systems that use
Remote Automation between a Windows 3.1 client and a Windows NT server? I
know that this works, and I've seen simplistic examples of it. My questions
are:

        1) Generally, how SLOW is it? How about relative to DCOM?
        2) Is it good for anything but LOW volume transaction processing?
        3) Are there any other "gotchas" I should be aware of?

        Our servers are all NT, but.....we've got a whole bunch of  3.1 clients
and are looking for a suitable migration path to the 32 bit world. This is
especially true for new development. We want to position the new apps so
that when all our clients are 32 bit, we can take advantage of 32 bit's
inherent benefits.
