I expect extremely heavy websites to require extremely expensive
equipment regardless of the software they use. Cost was not the issue
raised by the OP.
Cost is always an issue, even if implicit. If the person is so hung up
on the idea of pushing things into ram there is a pretty good
possibility they have priced out the 50 and 100 spindle devices needed
to get the same type of performance.
