Hi Alain,

Thanks for the helpful reply.  I think a large part of my confusion is all 
the Java bits.  I've not been involved in the Java world for quite awhile, 
and it's not clear to me how that all fits together.  How are upgrades 
handled?  Does the installer know to not overwrite the XML files that I've 
customized for our unique document types?

I have a few other followup questions:

I couldn't find a sandbox or a sample project on svn.nuxeo.org.  I did find 
the tutorial about this which looks promising.  Where is this sample 
project?

I'm also a bit confused about the docs.  There are some docs on nuxeo.org, 
other stuff in a "book", these howtos linked to from svn.nuxeo.org...  It 
might be nice to make the nuxeo.org page have a more comprehensive set of 
links.

Is it possible to have certain document types visible only in certain 
domains?

Where is that done?

I also couldn't find these nightly builds.  Where can I go to download one?

I was meaning more along the lines of this...

With my almost completely empty, idle, default install, the Java process has 
over 400MB resident and over 1GB mapped (virtual).  This strikes me as huge 
for a webserver.  So if I'm going to have 200 users hitting this thing, and 
100,000 documents, am I going to need to have 20GB of RAM?  If so, that's 
going to be an issue.  Or does it scale more linearly -- it will never 
really need more than 400MB RAM?

Thanks,

-- John
