I would appreciate the thoughts on references though. Reason being
that one of the biggest strengths of JSR-170 is the ability to store
references. I imagine a situation where i could have a nodetype call
docType which is either pdf or word strings. Say 80% of my documents
are word documents. Then the docType will have a reference to 80% of
all documents in my repository. If my repository is 100,000 files then
docType references 80,000 nodes.
If what you say is correct that at every new reference, the complete
set of references are rewritten, then obviously this is a bottleneck.
Should such a situation be avoided?
Why would you need to use such references structure? I would rather
use the node types to model such information. A search query like
//element(*,my:wordDocument) will efficiently return you all such Word
documents in your workspace.
