I have only 500 MByte per month...

arround 123.000 new rows per month

You have to use a physical cluster like me. Searches in a Database of
more then 1 TByte even under using "tablespace" and "tablepartitioning"
let you run into performance issues...
I have now splited my Database in chunks of 250 GByte using a Cluster of
1U Servers from Sun Microsystems. Currently I run 8 servers with one
proxy. Each server cost me 2.300 Euro.
Note: On Friday I have a meeting with a Sun Partner in
Germany because a bigger project... where I have
to increase the performance of my database servers.
I have to calculate with 150.000 customers.
Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
