[Mapserver-users] Map broker?

[Krzysztof Chodak]

Has anyone of You any experience with MapServer and large amount of 
data. By large amount of data I take approximately 300MB of shapefiles. 
I think that MapServer's current architecture is not suitable for this 
use (when taking into account couple hits per second).

I got some knowledge of MapInfo MapXtreme - there is a mechanism of map 
objects broker which is preinitializing map objects and "renting" them 
on request. Don't you think that it would be great to have such 
"map-buffering" mechanism? I'm inspecting MapServer's code to find some 
clues wether it is hard to do it or not...
