... Follow up question: Are zexp files dumpable? I do not know what you mean with "dumpable". Are they just little ZODBs They use the same pickling code but they (of course) do not have transaction boundaries.

Thus, you cannot use ZODB utilities to read zexp files.

that I can pop open and dump on my own, or something more esoteric? Sure, you can open the "zexp" file: when I remember right, they contain a sequence of (binary) pickle objects.

However, again, I would verify whether the XML format exhibits the same problem. When it does, it is much easier to analyse... Dieter
