I have heard that one person was able to bring a script down from 200+ queries to only 18 SQL queries using shared memory feature in PHP4. I was wondering what are the ups/downs of this? What are other ways to lessen the number of queries to a db other than restructuring the db? Is there some way trick such as loading the db into memory perhaps? Thanks.
