The comment on this change is: typo. http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Frequently_asked_questions?action=3Ddiff&rev= 1=3D26&rev2=3D27 -------------------------------------------------- = It would be quite hard to give out any numbers that make much sense. From= the architecture point of view, a view on a table is much like a (multi-co= lumn) index on a table in an RDBMS that just performs a quick look-up. So t= his theoretically should be pretty quick. = - The major advantage of the architecture is, however, that it is designed = for high traffic. No locking occurs is the storage module (MVCC and all tha= t) allowing any number of parallel readers as well as serialized writes. Wi= th replication, you can even set up multiple machines for a horizontal scal= e-out and data partitioning (in the future) will let you cope with huge vol= umes of data. (See [[http://jan.prima.de/~jan/plok/archives/72-Some-Context= .html|slide 13 of Jan Lehnardt's essay]] for more on the storage module or = the whole post for detailed info in general). + The major advantage of the architecture is, however, that it is designed = for high traffic.
