And another one : does the fact of splitting a Zope site between several ZODBs can have any impact (improvement or not) on the whole performances ??
There is no measurable difference in performance unless you mount a large number of databases. The MountPoint._setDB() and MountPoint.close() methods are the issue here: they have to open/close all mounted connections, even if they won't be used in the course of a transaction.
Hmmm... well, just a data point, but since I moved one of our big setups (Two ClientStorages mounted into another ClientStorage) from ExtMount to DBTab, I've noticed that the first object loaded from a mounted storage takes significantly(and I do mean significant ;-) longer than it used to and longer than any subsequent loads of objects from that storage. I wonder what's taking the time? The mounted storages all have fairly large (100-400Mb) ZEO client caches, but they were that way with ExtMount too.
I can't think of an explanation. I tried for 4 days. ;-) Shane
