Hi,
It is very important concern. Would you provide more information about
traffic ? Clicks per hour ? Mb per hour ? per day/month ?
My idea is always the same: use cache! I.e.
Internet <---> Apache <----> [magic cache module] <---> Squeak/Seaside
So if possible make Apache show page from disk, not from Seaside.
It is just idea and i know that session state is something to care about.
But I believe that it is possible. What about module for Apache ?
