Yes, packing your data.fs is a costly operation.
Seb,
Just to be clear, are you saying that *while* packing, zope will slow down (which is what I think you are saying) or that subsequent to packing, zope will stay slowed down (which is what I think Thomas is saying)? I don't see why the latter would be true.
