Filter vs. seperate shapefiles

[Kevin Flanders]

Is it better (ie. faster) to have several map layers reference the same
shapefile using FILTER statements to specify the shapes they reference, or
to create several different shapefiles.....one for each class (on/off
control is required for each layer, which is why we are not simply using
different CLASSES).
