Has anyone ever made an attempt to replace the ZoDB backend in Zenoss with
MySQL?

With 158 devices, much of Zenoss is pretty much unusable. I might as well forget trying to run an availability report for the quarter as it takes 15 minutes to generate just the first screen (before I can change the start
date).

Sometimes, just pulling up a devices takes a good bit of time. As much as I like Zenoss and am REALLY wanting it to work, after a year I'm seriously
considering dumping it as it's just not performing as it needs.

What I'm wondering is if the choice to use ZoDB could be a large part of the performance problems. It definitely makes things difficult to deal with
when upgrades fail.

I have to say.. this question is very ironic. The availability report barely touches the ZODB at all. MySQL is doing all of the work to generate this report. If it runs slowly you need to tune your MySQL database as ZODB isn't the bottleneck.
