Hi, Managaing a lot of files is not a nightmare if you use/build the right tools.
Why not saving filenames in the DB and then just using the ordinary web server to deliver them? Getting the blob out of the DB and then serving it through the web app is going to be a lot slower than letting, say, Apache do it. I wrote a system that kept 15000 files in a directory tree. You just let your software deal with them.... Hugo _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
