we're caching much data in a database in current development work). But
of the people who use the system we have no complaints and of those

guess what I'm saying is that performance issues are a nice theory and
easily worked around when found by pushing data into a database...
Since when has reading po files off disk or parsing them been a highly
cpu demanding experience - it migth be in java but in C the cost of parsing
po files is tiny, maybe even less than the cost of filling the cache with
some monster sql database and then putting back pootle.
