on or about, Wednesday, January 15, 2003, we have reason to believe that aborel wrote something along the lines of :
In "Choosing to store data in SQL vs ZODB" located http://www.zope.org/Members/anthony/sql_vs_ZODB
[snip..]
Does that mean that the changes AND the old version of the object are kept in ZODB ?
Yes. Every transaction is appended to the data.fs-file.
If it's true, is packing a good way to throw away the old versions of the object ?
Yes.
If you have an application that causes your data.fs to grow, you might consider using cron or something similar to pack automatically at regular intervals.
Thanks, i read that. ZODB uses transactions so they need to be stored. i'm stupid or i read too many pages on Python/Zope/Plone. Is there a Zope product running on Windows XP emulating to cron on Unix ?
