That's very misleading. Sure more RAM is better.
It's my experience that performance is almost entirely architectural - the
architecture of your site, NOT the hardware; eg we get about the same
performance on a P75 as we do on a PIII whatever. How you index the
data, what are the joins, what are the caches, how do you index it,
how do you build tables or do you build tables at all, caches again,
how do you massage your data, any one of those dwarfs (dwarves? nahhhh)
any performance issues in mv/ic itself.
And yes, once all of that works nicely, if you send a few layers of nested
tables, then it's all wasted without a fast client machine.
