Not sure, that I get what you mean with "design".
But, there is ZODB documentation:
* an UML model (this is a design document)
* quite a good description named "zodb3.html/pdf".
The latter document tells you that ZODB is designed for
applications with a low ratio of writes to reads.
It does not tell you how many objects you can *practically*
store in the ZODB (the theoretical limit is very high, something
like 256**8). But, I did not yet see such assurancies for SQL
servers neither...
