Sorry Dieter if I'm slow on this but I just don't get it ...
At this moment I have a dictionary looking like this:
views = {'http://mypage.com/frontpage': 10, 'http://mypage.com/article2': 3}
This get's saved into ZODB and - as I understand - causes the ConflictErrors ?

Instead I should use some sort of BTrees.Length object ... and then my 
question is:
Should the dictionary look like this instead:
views = {'http://mypage.com/frontpage': BTrees.Length(10), 
'http://mypage.com/article2': BTrees.Length(3)}
??
Or is it the entire dictionary that should be some kind of BTrees.Length() ??
