The blogger made a mistake; It appears Eagle Filer uses a combination of flat file structure AND Core Data (SQLite db) for its database, instead of Yojimbo's exclusive use of Core Data.

Flat file system? What version of EagleFiler did you try that did not have hierarchical folders for storage? Are you misrepresenting EagleFiler? ;-)

As far as I know, the database is used to store tags, labels, and the relation between files and notes (if they have one), as well as the index for fast searches. (Each note contains a link to the record it is attached to.) The documents themselves are not in the database.

I think both Yojimbo and EagleFiler are great products (I have licences for both), and I do not think it's misrepresenting Yojimbo to say that it does not support nested folders and does not store its documents in the file system, which seemed to be two requirements of the blogger. In fact, I think this discussion is most benefic for both products as it shows real cases where users have some needs not covered by one or the other application. (For instance, I really miss the encryption capabilities of Yojimbo when I use EagleFiler.)
