Performance versus scalability

Michael Urquiola replied to Peter Bromberg at 24-Oct-07 10:46
I would be concerned that storing that much additional data in memory will hurt scalability.  I agree that initial performance will likely be better.  Caching is one of those trade offs that generally is good for single user performance but bad for scalability unless it is done very judiciously.  In performance work I've done we've made great improvements by getting everything not used system wide out of cache and streaming out just the data we need on demand.
