Hasnul,
My question is if there is a query design that would query multiple
server simultaneously.. would that improve the performance?
Not without a vast amounts of infrastructure coding. You're
basically talking about what Oracle has spent the last 3 years and
$100 million working on.
I recall a presentation from folks from Empress Software
http://www.empress.com/ back in about '94 or '95 offering this very
feature as part of the base functionality of their product.
I'm not sure it's quite fair to assess things as more or less
preposterous simply because they prove ludicrously expensive to
develop on a particular platform that happens to be targeted by even
more ludicrous quantities of development dollars...
On the other hand, it seems unlikely that improved performance would
be one of the merits of this approach...

Rules of the Evil Overlord #92. If I ever talk to the hero on the
phone, I will not taunt him. Instead I will say that his dogged
perseverance has given me new insight on the futility of my evil ways
and that if he leaves me alone for a few months of quiet contemplation
I will likely return to the path of righteousness. (Heroes are
incredibly gullible in this regard.) http://www.eviloverlord.com/
