ok so LVS is not what i am looking for. I have been
reading about some software hacks that allow mysql to
use shared memory spread out over a few machines.
scenerio,
Huge database, over 7 million records. And a high
ratio of writes vs reads. Idealy i would like to have

experience running a database this big? can anyone
offer a suitalbe setup? I have taken a look at the
