You can but its a lot slower than memory - but a lot more scaleale too! > Has anyone ever worked this option? Yes, lots of times. In fact most large scale projects will need to save objects to some kind of persistent store eventually. This could be a text file (see my tutor for an example) or a full blown database. Foor simple persistence the pickle and shelve modules are useful. If you need to do random access and searches then a full RDBMS like MySQL will be better. An Object database might also work - I believe Zope has one but I've never used it, nor even read up on it...
