Yep, that's how we got around speed issue with WebDocs.

By storing pointers in the DB you can skip the file touch until absolutely necessary.

Learned that back in 2002 when we tried doing large directory listings with hundreds of thousands of documents and didn't go so well.

I would have bet on images on the IFS beating the remote ones any day, until I saw the empirical results.

My only guess is with the directory structure that is used by the content management the search through the directory is the source of the problem. The vendor in this case does not store a direct link to the document (which of course would eliminate significant performance issues) rather a name and the top of directory structure set aside for the specific class of documents.
