I think as Dieter stated any form of cacheing will enhance your performance, It seems that most of the people tend to disagree with mine and your programmers oppinion. And it may be the case that your system will perform well in this situation. Also sorry for the delayed reply, I finally got some vacation time in this year (Yay me!) beno wrote:
Thanks. I am of the opinion that adding a Squid server for this non-dynamic content would solve almost all problems. Your thoughts? beno

Here our MySQL database is on a separate server than our Apache and Zope servers we serve 100's of thousands of requests per day, if we were to serve parts of our content from MySQL there would definitely be a noticeable hit to our request times.
Now if we are just talking about a 10 page website that serves 100 or so requests per day you probably wouldn't notice at all. It is all dependent on the amount of data, and the amount of traffic, I went with the worst case point of view, large amounts of content served from a remote database, with high traffic, as opposed to serving static content from the webserver.
We have about 60 sites that use our Zope server, two fairly large sites, and we experience slow response times just serving from the ZODB. When one of the agencies puts out a document for the public and it gets hit hard, we notice it. Granted it doesn't DoS us, and we are able to work normally, there is a definite slow down in network traffic.

What information are you basing this on?
