Definitely going to be slower, even if we had such function (and we'll actually
very soon have it) it would result in one lookup query per record.
Better publish a view that already does the join with the lookup
tables directly.
There is also a new classification function that would allow one to store the
LUT in SLD in quite a compact way, but I have no idea whether it's actually
working fine or not, just never tried it out so far

The modern datacenter depends on network connectivity to access resources
and provide services. The best practices for maximizing a physical server's
connectivity to a physical network are well understood - see how these
rules translate into the virtual world?
