but I hate the idea of storing my entire site in one data.fs....
How come?
Well... what about backup? Do I have to shut my site down to do a
nightly backup?
Nope.
Postgres is more efficient than Zope / ZODB at using multiple
processors.
Yes, there you have a goof point. If you have large volumes of writing,
a postgres backend my (at least in theory) be faster.
Also, what if a software bug (or a hardware bug, or an OS bug)
corrupts some data structure that is in the middle of Data.FS?
Then you have backups. ;) Data is never written to the middle of
Data.fs, so this would be a very unusual problem.
Admittedly, I don't know much about it - but no database that I know
of uses a single file for everything.
Well, neither does FileStorage. The index of objects is in a separate
file for example.
Perhaps the ZEO is better suited for this task.
It enables you to use multiple processors and multiple computers more
efficiently, so it's always a good idea for big sites, no matter what
storage you use.
Does CPS work using the ZEO as a backing store instead of ZODB directly??
Absolutely.
