I'm not sure yet. I don't have any of those "fancy schmanzy" load testing
tools, so I'll probably run several MS-WAS tool (that free load tester from
MS, formerly called homer) machines against a few CF servers set up this
way, fire up the perfmon and watch a few key items during the test. Not
particularly scientific, but it should give a general idea of network
traffic/load.
I'm probably going to wait several more weeks before I do the tests
though...
Does anyone out there know if CF/Verity caches collections when it uses
them? Does it load them every time? Does it have to load the entire
collection each time or just parts?
