How well does Ztables/Confera scale up?
I have this project that I'm planning to use Zope on (it's still in the evaluation stage) and I just started looking at Confera (which uses pieces of ZTables/Tabula) which is has some of the things I need (specifically, search-text capabilities) -- I'll have to hack it a bit to simplify it (I just need to be able to add/edit/delete records into a DB) - but my concern is with how well it scales up (the database is not actually that big -- it's about 4-6 Megabytes in size, 500 records -- yep, that means each record is a pretty big text file)). So I was wondering if I could get some feedback about this (especially from people who have used or are using Confera/ZTables/Tabula)-- if you have database sizes bigger than this -- about the software(OS/webserver)/hardware (memory/CPU/HD) requirements, whether it's on the internet or not, etc. I know I've seen some Zope sites handle volumes bigger than this but I don't know if they're using Tabula for this kind of volume or just some SQL database (which is also an alternative I'm looking at -- but I won't have the text search capabilities unless I use some DB-specific functions and it won't be platform-independent).
