Sheds no light on the client vs session debate but...
In testing on my current project I found that the impact of retrieving client variables from the database versus from a cookie averaged 16ms.

I think using client variables for the security aspect is great. But I also know that usually the bottleneck in an application are those darn database calls. Considering this, I think it would handicap you greatly to limit your thinking one way or the other exculsively. I think even in a clustered enviroments, you would benifit moving client variables that have extensive calls to session variables for the pupose of reading within the app. Rick ==^================================================================ This email was sent to: [email protected] EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?bUrFMa.bV0Kx9 Or send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] T O P I C A -- Register now to manage your mail! http://www.topica.com/partner/tag02/register ==^================================================================
