this would basically require creating a zope filesystem, and would have to be ported to each individual system.. yuch.. RobG On Wed, 1 Sep 1999, Christopher Petrilli wrote:
Would there be any performance gain from having ZODB3 access a raw io device instead of using a filesystem, as can be done in FreeBSD for example?
While it might THEORETICALLY be possible to beat the file system, it's also non-portable, a headache, painful and all-together a bad idea. Even Oracle no longer requires this. There are 10000000 other places to focus optimization :-)
