I have a requirement where I have created an application ontology. Individuals 
(instances) will be added/updated/removed based on this ontology. I am using an 
OntModel backed by TDB.

My questions -
1) As the data keeps on growing, will the entire ontology (classes + instances) 
be loaded each time I call TDBFactory.createNamedModel(ONT_URI, <directory>));

2) Is there any way to load just the schema (classes + property) definitions 
and avoid loading any instances ? I can create separate uris for classes and 
instances but that the instance ontology will soon be out of proportion.

rgds,
Sourajit
