I'd heard of it before, but no one seems to talk much about it... so I was kind of hoping someone would mention it here. I want to avoid hitting a database as much as possible, so it seems like a decent solution. RAM is cheap copious enough these days that I shouldn't have any problem keeping the entire game in memory (we'll see). It's possible that I'll end up with some kind of hybrid solution like Jeff mentioned. I'll try to report back when I get a little further along for the benefit of others that may have similar questions down the line :) Thanks again, Brent
