[ZODB-Dev] Server-side caching

[Pedro Ferreira]

Hello all,

A (possibly silly) question: does ZEO have some kind of server-side 
cache? I mean, each time an oid is requested by one of the clients is it 
retrieved from the DB file directly, or are some of the objects kept in 
memory? From what I see in the code, the latter doesn't seem to happen.

I know there are client-side caches, but in a multiple client/server 
context I wonder if it's not faster to ask the DB for an oid that is 
already in memory instead of retrieving it from the client cache?

Thanks in advance,

Pedro
