Hi Rick, I think it would be a great enhancement...
I think all of the choices you have specified are good to have, but at the very least one should be able to do #1 (limit on the total space consumed by a database).

You can always use operating system controls to limit the size of the database directory. But when Derby hits that limit, it will probably fail in an ungraceful way. It's worth logging an enhancement request for this functionality. What kind of limits would you like to see: 1) Limits on the total space consumed by a database. 2) Limits on the total space consumed by an individual table. 3) Limits on the number of rows in an individual table. 4) Limits on the total space consumed by all tables owned by a given user or role. 5) Something else? Thanks, -Rick
