[Zope-Coders] three cheers for toby

[Chris McDonough]

My experience with the new pickle cache code has been great.

FWIW, I've loaded about two year's worth of Zope maillist archives into 
a HEAD-run Zope.  The memory utilization is predictable and steady.  I'm 
putting the messages in "normal" Zope folders (heavily nested), and 
there are about 30,000 messages in the system now.  The system reports 
upwards of 400,000 objects in the database.  Performance is good.

Using the new cache is a big improvement over trying to outfox the old 
caching code by putting "fullsweep" and whatever in bulk-loading 
mechanisms (which never appeared to do all that much good anyway).

Whoo hoo Toby!
