OK. Well, I'm concerned about how much a database would grow. I'm thinking if I use one BTree for all the entries, would the database grow just a little or a lot when you start getting into the millions of entries when inserting one small item?
Growth is a problem only if you are going to modify these entries a lot.
Mm. Yes, Plone is a bit sluggish, that's why I want to write a purely Zope-based app.
Absolutely.
Mm. I guess I could be OK with one "index", it being the id/path of the object. However, it would be nice to build for the future and include the ability to search all objects. Maybe a combination of the two could work.
Yeah, for full text search you would definietly benefit from the full text indexes that the catalog has. -- Lennart Regebro: Python, Zope, Plone, Grok http://regebro.wordpress.com/ +33 661 58 14 64
