Thanks for the reply. I feel like I've asked this question before and gotten that reply.
It seems like a waste to have to read the largish object off disk with request cycle (especially with a good user load). I've used cache.ram in the past but I remember a gotcha when using it with apache and multiple processes. I was hoping for maybe a mechanism within web2py itself, that could load it with framework and then be available to my controllers.
