Hi All, it seems I am a worrier.

On a large/busy site, would I need to worry about caching my pages? If say the pages were running around 25 queries in total? (Similar to talkphp's homepage but with more images.)

While I could prob easily cache the homepage and other top level pages to every ten mins or so, there would be hundreds of other pages that I wouldn't be able to cache so easily.

The server has memache installed (how effective is that anyway?).

Am I worrying over nothing? Or for a busy site should is caching essential?

Cheers,
