Yes, Ray's tag also stores things in memory (in fact I think CFACCELERATE was based on Ray's tag). What I meant to say regarding performance was that when Brandon (and Ray as well I beleive) testing their in-memory caching against CFCACHE, the difference in speed was measured in orders of magnitude. So basically, cache to memory as much as you can. (Obviously, use your head and don't kill your server though.)
