For all who are interested in breaking database size barriers without moving to Oracle or Berkeley Storage, here's something to try out. http://www.zope.org/Members/hathawsh/PartitionedFileStorage I *highly* recommend you back up Data.fs before installing. What is known to work: - Reads and writes of logical files greater than 3 GB on versions of Linux that support only 2 GB files. - Undo and packing. - Fast random reads and writes. - Using simple binary concatenation to move back to a standard single file. - Using PartitionedFile completely independent of Zope or ZODB. What has not been tested, but will very likely work: - Tranalyzer. - Putting the partitions on different physical devices. (Poor man's RAID :-) ) What couldn't be tested by my limited resources: - Platforms other than Linux. - Running this on a busy Zope site. (No, www.zope.org is not running PartitionedFileStorage. :-) ) BTW to all in the U.S., Happy Thanksgiving! Shane
