Storing resources in DB

[Guest]

Hi,
We are considering storing our resources in a DB table.
My question is whether using a custom provider with the resources stored in
DB can downgrade the application performance? I understand that the .net
framework use the resource as assembliles and store them in cache.
My custom provider should get the resources and store them in cache also.
Is there a diffrence on how the framework treats the resource assemblies
with the default provider in terms of caching?

Thanks

Unless you are seeing actual performance issues, I wouldn't worry about
micro optimizations. If you cache your resources in memory coming from your
DB, you are going to get optimal performance.

Hi Karl,
Thanks for your reply.
Does the default provider of localization with asp.net 2.0 cache the
resource in the way?

Yes, I believe it does.
