I hadn't read thoroughly, but this is the part that reminds me of *ahem*

"New paradigm" -- bingo! We have a winner!

"New caching technique", but no details -- hmm.

I'm willing to be proven wrong, but the site itself doesn't help:

"Best practices: TUDBC promotes the best practices for coding styles using 
super-strongly-typed SQL statement cache and connection cache."

What makes a SQL statement "super" strongly-typed?

And you do realize this is the _ruby_ mailing list, right? A lot of duck 
typers here. Not really the best place for strong typing.


But the real kicker is, login required for "source codes and tools", and it's 
got a custom license -- sorry, there are too many open DBCs for me to waste 
time getting a fscking _login_ for yours, especially when I'd rather be 
moving beyond SQL anyway (see: CouchDB, ThruDB...)
