Well, when I was setting up a big project, my original scheme was to have one library stack per 'entity' - so a library for everything to do with customers, suppliers, articles, general accounts, etc. Not exactly a one-to-one mapping with all the database tables, but still plenty of library stacks would have been needed. As soon as I realized it was going to take more library stacks than allowed, I took a different direction, 'clustering' the libraries - not a problem because Revolution allows for really long scripts (as opposed to HyperCard's 32K limit) so this could be easily compartmentalized. Of course, I could have also padded my scripts with a check-load-use-unload cycle - but it would have been more convenient if I could just have them all loaded into memory at the same time and as different files on disk.
