[Zope-dev] BTree vs dictionary

Now that I know how to use BTrees I grew fond of it and the features it
offers.

While the advantages of using BTrees are obvious when using it in a database
context, I was wondering if it makes sense to use it instead of a dictionary
routinely, just so I can take advantage of commands such as t(min=1, max=4).

As I have no idea about the code that make the BTree tick, I was wondering:
does anybody advise against it? Should I be extra careful about some things?


Thanks for the help,
Yair
