I was reading somewhere (can't remember where) that connecting to a db is a pretty costly transaction. DB queries aside, does anyone know of any benchmarks that demonstrate file access vs. db connections?
Similarily, while DB queries offer alot of power, would it be cheaper (faster) to drop simple information that does not require heavy queries into a file and access it through the file system?
