Well, I know Jim had to fix a number of bugs already after Dieter's
initial patch landed in the codebase. Like "Sizes of new objects
weren't added to the object cache size estimation" sometime late in
the 3.9.0 process.

So the codebase isn't really the same and there have been a huge
number of changes in the ZODB codebase compared to what the Haufe Zope
fork was based on. That's why I'd be interested to know if someone
uses the actual ZODB 3.9.x codebase.

I would assume that this feature is working since it comes
from the Haufe Zope fork afaik and likely we are using it in production.
But I have to check this by digging through the legacy of the
origin author.
