I need to make a temporary connection to the ZODB. I have really good reasons relating to performance and not wanting have objects in the current cache getting removed from the cache on why I don't want to make use of the connections in the pool. I can elaborate on this if really nescessary...
The supposed way to get a temporary connection would be: conn = Globals.DB.open(temporary=1) which works fine. The problem is that one cannot: conn.close() as this puts the connector back into the pool, where it shouldn't go and if you do it, causes all kinds of nasty lockups, etc. I have read some old posts that advise against using temporary connectors as this can lead to memory leaks (as I can attest to after trying to use them) and that temporary connections seem to be "broken". How can I get a connector, that will not be used by other normal processes, that I can release cleanly when I am finished with it? Or at least ensure that one of the connectors in the pool is reserved for a specific process and that that connector will only be used by that process. Can I do this by giving a "version" to the connector? Any suggestions?
