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

The ZTable machinery buried in Zope is quite powerful. I've loaded a 27,000 record, 27 Mb version of the Internet Movie Database into a ZTable. The memory footprint stayed well under control and the searches were effectively instantaneous. Unfortunately it isn't yet supported for anything except ZTable, which is only available to consulting customers. --Paul
