Tell us some numbers in terms of what and how much you want to store inside
the ZODB.
The magic concept for scaling issues is ZEO. Zope can mount several ZEO
storages means
you can spread the data and load over several different clients and servers.

Replacing FileStorage with something else like BDB storage is usually much
slower. It's hard
to beat FileStorage by performance.
