My thoughts on folder structure: you should always have same folder structure in all environments. Always use the category based folders (QVD, QVW, Meta Data, Config & Security etc.) outside of individual projects. So ideally you need to have your individual project folders inside the category folders. This way you can always reference the relative paths in QVW file and move within environments. Also, this way you can ensure that all the projects have same standard folder structure and relative paths.
It depends whether you can survive full reload based on the user requirement. If you need to reload the app every 10 mins then it doesn’t makes sense to have full reload. If you reloading only few thousands of rows every night then it’s okay to have full reload compared to incremental reload. Personally, I’d recommend using the incremental reload when you have huge volumes of data.
