<==> 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?
