In a ResultSet can we search records from top to bottom and bottom to top at the same time and how. If so, is it faster than searching from one side.

Scrolling through result sets bi-directionally can be done with a JDBC 2.0 database driver, but cannot be done with a JDBC 1.x driver.

It wouldn't be faster to scroll from both sides since the processing time would be the same (i.e. if you have 10 records to process then you have to loop through all 10 records one way or the other)
another point is that your code would be a mess if you scrolled from both sides.
the standard way to do it is
while (rset.next())
{
// do your processing
}
 
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
