I am looking for some information regarding sizing of the Zope database its scalability, how big it can grow without performance issues beginning to impact on it etc. I have read the documentation in the manual regarding how to set up a number of servers but it does not give any indication as to how big a zope installation can be.
It sounds like you're talking about ZODB.
I have a few servers running heavily loaded 2GB Data.fs'es.
I've heard rumours of 10-20GB Data.fs'es happily in production.
There's also recorded instances of 200GB Data.fs'es, but I'm more sceptical about them ;-)
OTOH, a 200 GB DirectoryStorage should not be a problem. DBTab might be worth a look too, for "mounting" different storages at different zope folders. i've never run a storage that big so this opinion is worth the paper it's printed on ;-) -- Paul Winkler home: http://www.slinkp.com "Muppet Labs, where the future is made - today!"
