Hi Eric,

The one I know best is a chat site. The application is much more sophisticated
than MetaLink. It has seen also seen "unprecedented demand" recently - about
500% growth in the last year. There have been growing pains, mostly caused by
Oracle bugs, but they certainly seem to be able to make their Oracle stuff scale
much better than MetaLink does. Maybe its because of the performance consultant
they use. I understand that Oracle management politely declined an offer of help
from the same consultant.

Steve,

Thanks for the very interesting comments. Are those webified
apps with similar requirements as metalink?
