[opencms-dev] Flexcache counters

[Chuck Mysak]

Request are not bad ideas. And there are no bad ideas, only problems that
appear.

The most important problem that arises is the persistence that has to happen
at the request. For instance, the database that holds these values for each
page that has to be updated on each request. Or the big hashtable (pages,
counts) that has to be serialized and persistent between sessions. That
could bring down the server performance-wise.

Thanks,

Chuck
