Hi folks, I am trying go get a feel for how widely used uncompressed metadata repositories are.
A typical content.xml file contains many copies of identical license text. Memory use is not an issue since the implementation uses a StringPool to extern string references. Compressed repositories do not present an issue for disk foot print or network traffic as the content.xml compresses extremely well, typically 95% or more. However, uncompressed metadata repositories may pose a significant concern here if they are widely used. So does anybody have an opinion on how widely used uncompressed repositories are?
