This is what I love about zope. It can be a much more flexible way to
store data than in a relational db. Maybe some combination of zodb and
s3 would be efficient. Zodb for frequently used business objects and a
library (localfs modified ?) for storing data documents on s3. Could
you update your plan when you get time?
Thanks!

You can use it to start zope, but it makes far too many writes
inefficiently (it took about 15 minutes for zope2 to create all it's
objects on a first start).
Now that ec2 comes with static IP addresses, I might end up looking at
it again. It needs refactoring to write only one file per transaction
(or savepoint), but once done I would imagine it might then offer
reasonable performance.

The google summer of code is almost underway and already has a lot of
good ideas but I was wondering if any of my fellow zope users would
have any interest in the following area:
I don't have the skills but I think it would be cool if some
student ported Zope to utilize features of the google file system or
libferris. Libferris is a virtual file system that mounts just about
everything including postgres, xml and OpenOffice docs. If zope ran
on the gfs (primarily adding business logic, security and publishing)
it would give a boost to the value of any zope based company. Also, I
think it would be fun to run map/reduce on my stored objects! A zope
that ran on libferris and offered secure publishing of libferris
resources would just be cool.
If anybody else thinks this would be useful I will jon the gsoc user
list, (even though I'm not a student and I'm not experienced enough
with zope to be a mentor) and do my best to make this happen.
