that. The updates, however, are slow like a dog. I don't think anyone can
argue that one. If you've got a collection using verity that doesn't change
a whole lot, then verity is great (and free, if the collection is small
enough). But if the collection is highly dynamic, then verity quicky gets
crushed under it's own weight.
So yes, my statements don't always apply, but the initial question was about
updates, not reads.
