Changing page counts to remove some load from the database server

Any suggestions on how I could change the way page counts are recorded on a site ?

I think I could use AJAX or write them to a text file but that would add IO.

Any clever ideas welcome !

You could use a separate (non-critical master) database for this information by setting a different database connection for specific queries (INSERTs and UPDATES relating to page counts).

The word for the answer to this is "contentious" :)

There's ups and downs to both, IO, consolidation ... as you say.

Tricky.
