1. Will there be a performance improvement? How much (if anyone has measured)?
2. Is there an easy way to migrate from sheets to tables?
3. Any other considerations?

1. The speed of the app is increased and the sync time is drastically reduced.  
The app speed also increases when there is large amounts of data.
2. You can import the sheets directly to tables but the computed columns will have to be recreated.
3. If you a big database it will be a good idea to move to tables as they work much more smoothly with glide.
