This would require how much RAM for the index? :-)
It can hold 16 billion billion pointers, with each pointer being 48 bits, thats 96 exabytes (100 million terabytes). Just for the index. :) As an absolute minimum. Indexes normally being btrees or something like that, you would surely need several times that in practice. :) Sorry for any calculation errors, but I can be rather a lot off without it making a difference, so I can't be bothered to check. ;) -- Lennart Regebro, Nuxeo http://www.nuxeo.com/ CPS Content Management http://www.cps-project.org/
