Cool :-)
Blobs are used to efficiently storage large amounts of binary data
within a database. This implementation uses real files on the file
system in combination with any ZODB storage (FileStorage, ...) and
native support for ZEO clusters. It is efficient in terms of memory and
CPU usage.
Hmm, can all the other benefits be used without storing blobs in
seperate files on filesystems?
FileStorage backup semantics are now "nice" with repozo, how would you
back up related blobs?
I guess I also have an irrational paranoia about separate files having
the correct transactional semantics. Anything I can read to prove my
paranoia to be irrational? ;-)
cheers,
Chris
