Nick, Depends on how you far you need to scale, and if you are looking to support large numbers of users.
UniObjects is NOT thread safe, but you can roll your own connection pooling - ie. write your logic into a DLL that maintains a series of connections with some form of semaphoring, and call that from your ASP pages rather than calling UniObjects directly. There's something to be said for keeping your logic in a DLL anyway as ASP coding tends to fragment quite highly, and complex pages can be more of a pain to maintain than a complex DLL! Otherwise, your best bet is to use RedBack, which is designed explicitly to support the ASP model, and provides connection pooling and thread safety with a pretty decent level of performance and high scalability. We have put together a number of applications running across RedBack supporting large numbers of users for a local government, including call centres, billing and other fairly intensive applications and performance has not been an issue.
