Good use of caching would help prolong the time before having to scale up, as well as reducing hardware requirements. Cake's own caching is really neat, as are things like lighttpd's mod_cml or traditional options like squid. Remember that web servers are *extremely* good at serving static content! I should really add the general warning against premature optimisation here, but I'm sure you've heard it before. Best wishes, -- Chris Lamb, Cambridgeshire, UK GPG: 0x634F9A20
