The "Perforce at Google" case study that this article links to seems to discount some of the ideas that Perforce is super-scalable. Things like:
- "Every command, from any client (e.g.,
p4v), appears to the server as if it came
from the p4 command line."
- "Each command starts a process on the
server."
Of course, this is probably a use case in the extreme (and it was 2006), but I think it just goes to show that it doesn't make much sense to make such absolute statements ("X is more ___ than Y").
