I was finally able to install monetdb and put data into it (on OSX),
although I don't have any performance numbers to report back just yet.

-If i delete or even drop a large table from MDB5, many of the BAT
files remain on the file system.  Is there a command that
deflates/shrinks or completely removes to files?  I wasn't able to
find anything in the docs

-According to previous messages on the mailing list and some other
docs, MonetDB 5 is supposed to work with distributed databases
(Armada?).  I don't see anything regarding this in the docs either, is
it coming soon?

-I am very (VERY) interested in the ability to have a cluster/grid of
MDB servers which let me distribute data and computation while
providing an easy to use interface for end users and admins.  Along
with that, if we get the ability to process streaming data (such as
stock quotes), MonetDB will become king of Wall Street :)

-I see that one of the recommended projects for students is to extend
MonetDB to process time series data.  If someone is looking at this,
please take a look at this paper:
http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/610025.html (AQuery for ordered data).

Thanks
