is storing everything in one big file makes me extremely nervous. Probably doesn't matter for smaller web sites but if I actually wanted to use this for larger sites it would be a real sticking point. Any advice on this point?
Most databases store everything in a few large files. Why is one large file worse? ZODB is a real database. It's a real good database. Aside from that, things you can look at are: 1) serving images from a seperate http server that is filesystem based. 2) using the localfs product 3) storing everything in an relational database. (oracle, postgres, mysql)
