No, it is perfectly all right to have millions or billions of entities in file 1. It is just not a good idea (in general) to access them sequentially. That's why I mentioned that 'seq' is not intended for "normal" DB operations. If entities need to be searched for sequentially, you don't need a DB after all. Normally, you have higher-order structures like indexes or lists which allow direct application-specific access to the entities. > If so I might just create some dummy entity (that I will never have to > scan/seq) and put it there. For what purpose? I think I don't understand your intention in this specific case yet. Cheers, - Alex -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picolisp@software-lab.de?subject=Unsubscribe
