Re: Time to change the data store to play with time machine?
I suggest BareBones consider moving their data store out of the sqlite database and store Yojimbo entries onto the file system. The time machine backups are getting rather large when the whole database is backed up. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, Yojimbo uses Core Data, which is a subsystem supplied by the OS for precisely the sort of data storage needs that Yojimbo has. The fact that Core Data uses sqlite is an implementation detail and is, by design, abstracted away from Core Data clients. Since Core Data is a fundamental part of the OS, we leave it to Apple to make sure that it plays nicely with other relevant OS components. Since Time Machine is brand new and there are still lots of angles to figure out, I have every confidence that in the long term, Time Machine will evolve as necessary to accommodate the needs of Core Data clients.

Adrian's clearly put a lot of effort into it, and as I recall, it accesses our customers' data using a means that we have created for that purpose (namely, the AppleScript interface).

Re: Yojimbo 1.5 and sync services
On 12/5/07 at 12:58 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (John Siracusa) wrote: When I last dealt with Yojimbo sync issues, the bottom line seemed to be that Apple hadn't intended sync services to deal with the type and volume of data that Yojimbo can throw at it (the best example being the sync conflict dialog's uselessness (best case) or infinite beachball hang (typical case) when trying to present a resolution dialog for a large chunk of binary data). Now that Yojimbo 1.5 and Leopard are both here, can someone from BB give an update on the situation? Has Apple beefed up sync services so that it can handle Yojimbo-type loads? Is there anything BB can do or is doing to be gentler to sync services? What's the future look like for pushing big binary blobs through .Mac sync? I think it's important to note that "sync services" and ".Mac syncing" are two different concepts that can't be conflated (at least, not if you're raising technical considerations, as you have). "Sync Services" is the specific component in the OS that is designed to manage synchronization of objects between different application-level clients. There is not (and, as far as I can tell, has never been) a documented limit to the amount of data that can be managed by Sync Services (either in an individual object, or in a collection of synchronized data). Synchronization across multiple computers with .Mac is managed by the ".Mac sync client". On one hand, it's a Sync Services client and so is not subject to any characteristic limitation in the amount of data it can handle. On the other hand, it's a component of the .Mac service, and is subject to the characteristics and limitations of that particular service (not only intrinsic bandwidth limitations, but exceptional situations such as service outages, connection interruptions, meteor strikes, and so forth). There _have_ been changes to the .Mac client _and_ to the .Mac service itself which have, over time, made life better for Yojimbo customers who are using .Mac to synchronize large (both aggregate, and containing large items) Yojimbo repositories. I can't speculate on the future trend, though, because I can't control what happens to .Mac service. :-) R. -- Rich Siegel Bare Bones Software, Inc. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://www.barebones.com/> Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they sedate me. -- -- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
