Find the self-deprecating humor quite amusing, but even better is the actual description: "Because Javelin's design focuses heavily on solving scalability challenges, it isn't appropriate for everyone. The design implies tradeoffs, and the

Well, since those caches run on the same LAN as the webserver, the cost would probably outweigh the benefits. You can still break up your page into pieces and cache all but the once that change. Believe this is one of the reasons you would

Thanks, I see that I came off as overly negative, sorry. The things you link to, and a login; article (that I haven't read yet) put things in another light :) I still think your webpage needs some work though. I twice dismissed hyperdex as

Would be more believable if you gave some examples of the tradeoffs that went into the design, example use-cases, strengths and weaknesses, etc.. As it stands, it just reads: "It's faster!! It's better!! It's webscale!"

Exactly. I guess many, men in particular, are better at problem solving and need some advice like this from time to time. On the other hand, no-one want's to hear "I see you're drowning. That must be tough." We sometimes need a little probl
