Hi - thanks for your help...

"Heavy use" is undescriptive as it's difficult to gage the increase in
traffic - the site gets around 300,000 page impressions a day - this can
expect to be at least doubled (possibly tripled +).

The object is assigned to neither session nor application variables however
it is used multiple times on each page and doesn't appear to be closed off
properly (however I didn't think this would make a difference with the
garbage collector?).

Does any of this affect your advice?

Thanks...

Rob
