Ask YC: Any hackers who can provide advice on scaling (esp database)?
Particularly, how well symfony scales(using Propel ORM layer)? We've built our startup using Symfony, and it allows us to iterate quickly, but when it comes to scaling, especially database connections, are there any best practices out there that we should be aware of now?<p>I'd rather hear about people's experiences and tweak now rather than get screwed later! Thanks!
