But we really limit ourselves.
There was a thread within the Turbine mailing list about using XML to
back the database as Peers. This might be an adequate situation.
The other point is that this is a dynamic web application. At some
point down the road Jetspeed *will* have a database requirement, almost
by definition. The more dynamic the content the more we really need a
DB.

So here is what we will do. When the Servlet engine starts up (and thus
turbine) we will instantly start of the FeedDaemon (which will instantly
parse the defaultPortlets). The point is that we get all the advantage
of the current system but Portlets never have any latency.
