I need to build a data based application that will be served up to many
users from the one server using Citrix. So in other words each server will
be concurrently running between 20 and 40 instances of the application under
different user accounts.

To reduce load on the SQL server I want to cache (locally to each citrix
server) all the commonly access lists (such as cities and suburbs), but of
course I don't want each user session to cache its own copy, I want one
common cache per server.

What is the best way to go about this?
Initially I was thinking of running a windows service and using remoting to
access the data, but after an initial test this turned out to be quite slow.
Any ideas?

Thanks
Greg
 
It says that you can run the CacheService in a different process (which I
assume is what I want to do, so that all the different user sessions can
access the same data). But I didn't see anywhere that it said how you set
this up.

Does anyone know how to set this up? And also anything about its
performance?

Cheers
Greg
