Re: [Zope] ZODB or not ZODB?

Is ZODB up to the task of storing this quantity of objects? What problems might I run into? Is it a wise idea, could a data.fs file of this size (~3-400MB) become too easily corrupted? Should I use a separate data.fs file just to store the documents (ie using mountedFileStorage)? Or is it better to use method #1 or #2? Information from anyone with experience in this regard is greatly appreciated.

Casey, Zope.org is 375 MB packed, and it grows by 100 MB a *day*. There are

8500 member folders. When you get this many objects in a folder, accessing the folder (though not the objects themselves) gets *slow*.
