Hello,
another question. here is the use case:
 - a group of 10 engineers working on a project, 
 - total files created over 12 months: 500
 - average update per file 15 times
 - average file size 20MB
 - file format: MS Office, PDF, CAD drawings.

I thought CouchDB is designed to support this type of applications but is it 
correct to say that, every time there is an update to a doc, CouchDB will 
create a new version of the (whole) document ?
So can I say the total storage will be 500 * 20MB * 15 = 150GB without counting 
other overhead ?


Another question, if I only modify one field, is the attachment also copied 
into the new version of the document ?

I also saw this message posted almost a year ago, talking about if CouchDB is 
suitable for frequent small writes application, and it seems that some client 
side buffering is needed :

Is it still true today ?
