We used imageSegments in Sophie to store cached font information, we
then attempted to store a few more binary objects that way but soon
discovered it was flaky.....
Flaky meaning when we loaded an image segment it would crash the VM,
but not always. We didn't have time to figure out exactly what the
problem and back out our usage of it.

Hi all
if by any chance you have some code that could be turned into
tests, or
some tests or some time to write tests for image segments this
would be great
because etoy is really deep inside image segment and I would
really like to keep this
beautiful idea working :)
yes please. We use this in production (like DabbleDB), and it
works very well. I just hope to never really need to understand
the code...
really read the code because it is full of etoy related ugly hack
(really ugly)
I know...
I imagine :)
I'll add it to my todo list
I can help I would love to write a small chapter on imageSegment for
the Volume 2
because I also found the idea so cool.
