For real perform, use ASP as the framework and then write 
your code in VB6 as activex dlls.

The asp just invokes the dll, which will then stay memory 
resident as long as the web session continues. 

One copy of the program will serve hundreds or thousands of 
simultaneous users, making a small memory footprint. 
(Each session has its own memory area.)

The other nice thing is that the Vb dll only 'sees' one session 
at a time, and it maintains state internally, which 
makes the programming really simple. 

You just pass the Request and response objects to the VB code. 

We've run over a thousand connections at once to a Win 
2000 server, 512Mb RAM, with sub second response time.
