Sean,
Your write speed will not be affected, as couch will not update the
view until the view is accessed.

One of those is the idea that you dump a whole bunch of related
information
into the same database, then build design documents and views for
it. I
believe the docs say normally you have one design document per
application?
Under the hood then, don't we have to run a map function on each
document in
the database for each view in each design document? Eventually, it
seems
quite reasonable to expect that I'd have 20 or so views of the same
data.
Wouldn't that slow down inserts a lot? What is the practical upper
limit of
views?
Write speed is pretty important for one part of our system - should
I put
that data in another database so it doesn't get slowed down by the
rest of
the data's views?
Thanks!
