FileStorage's property of requiring memory proportional to the number of objects in the ZODB may be causing me problems. I'm running into trouble with a ceiling of 150,000 items, but the memory usage becomes too high, 60 or 70 or 80Mb well before reaching that point. I don't think the problem is a memory leak in my code, but perhaps I'm doing something wrong; has anyone stored that many items in a ZODB before? What was the memory usage like? (The largest number of objects stored in a Zope database would be an interesting bit of trivia.) -- A.M. Kuchling http://starship.python.net/crew/amk/ And forewarned is seldom forearmed.
