at the moment we use the ZODBDirectory for the member-storage. We

suited for that?
I see that searching is done by inspecting each directory-entry.
Will that bring us into trouble with that many users ?
Yes. ZODB Directory is designed as a stopgap solution for small
directories for people who don't want the hastle of setting up an SQL
database. But for 50000 people, you should really use SQL (or LDAP).
In theory ZODB Directory could be made fast, but a dedicated indexing
catalog for it would have to be written and used so that searches are
fast.
