  fritz,

  packing works very well from any of the connected ZEO clients. what
  probably throws you off is that when you hit "pack" the page comes back
  immediately and there is no visible change.

  packing is being initiated and you will see results after a while (the
  while being longer the larger your Data.fs is) by looking at the contents
  of the directory where your Data.fs is. you'll see a new file,
  Data.fs.pack, that is being built and when it is finished the old Data.fs
  gets renamed to Data.fs.old while Data.fs.pack becomes Data.fs.

  this process can take quite some time and the management interface in your
  ZEO client will only show the new database size after Data.fs.pack has
  been put in place of Data.fs.

  if you have problems with the 2GB file size limit i suggest (if you're on
  linux) that you go with a kernel that can handle large files (i have a
  test rig that uses a 2.2.17 kernel) and hand-compile python to enable
  large file support.

  jens
