You could look into establishing persistent connections. Know it's possible with mod_perl and I believe PHP. Not sure about ASP.
Basically, this leaves a connection always open, eliminating the overhead of resolving host, connecting, authenticating, switching to the proper database. Not really a lot of time saved but for a high-volume site it can make a difference; also may help if you are experiencing network latency. Is establishing a connection what you feel is slow? Or the transfer of data between your servers is what's slow? Dan On 8/15/06, Neil Tompkins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
