some of my thought about performance. Is it really important ? Well in out little country I don't think so, lets imagine a site that get 5,000,000 ( big site in any meaning - a good site for my opinion get 100,000 hits per month) 5,000,000 hits are equals to 2 queries per second which is easy task to my P-300 with 512MB mem that's run many thing simultaneously (MySQL, Postgresql, Apache .... )
In db the most important thing is Integrity and not the performance, and any way if I had a site that get 5,000,000 hits I could easily upgrade the web server to a real canon. -------------------------- Canaan Surfing Ltd.
