We're doing tests to find out where the bottlenecks are, caching is the
most obvious solution, but there may be others. Tools like memcache do a
really good job of sharing memory across servers so we don't have to
reinvent the wheel or hit the db at all.

In addition to looking into caching technologies/approaches we're gluing
together some tools for finding those bottlenecks. Our first step will
be finding them, then squashing them ... however.
