Hey. Usually, I don’t bother myself with performance questions before  
I create a first version and collect some information about my  
visitors but I’m just curious about the performance issues with  
Globalize.

I’m going to create one multilingual webapp and I want to use  
globalize plugin in it. I know that it stores all translated stuff in  
one table and that’s why I want to ask if there any _big_ performance  
issues? I mean is there something like “omg, we have only 2 visitors  
and it’s already slow as turtle”?

## I’m pretty sure that everything is ok, but nobody will die if I ask, right? 🙂
