Dave gives his feedback on a long-debated developement topic : storing files in database or on the filesystem. "I had been serving images via the database. Immediately when I switched to the filesystem I saw a huge benefit. Not just a drop in database connections, but overall “zippiness” in the site.

But make hay while the sun shines, as some entrepreneur will surely figure out how to abstract this stuff and make it accessible for the masses."
