[Seaside] speed of VM vs. speed of database

[sergio_101]

i am currently developing an app just for fun..

during my day job, i am a developer using a web framework that
directly connects to a database (mysql)..

one of the things we always do is craft our queries to use use the
database only for all queries and selections. when you use the
database for anything other than trivial queries, the difference is
the speed of the query is totally evident..


i am just wondering how the speed of the smalltalk VM compares to the
speed of pulling results from a database and shoving them into an
array..

thanks!
