I once felt like this... But I've learned to stop worrying and love the ZODB :-) I can recommend looking into the very useful repozo.py which ships as part of ZODB tools - at least in all the Zope-2 series (afaik). Its invaluable for making incremental backups of your Data.fs as it grows. (There are some issues about copying the Data.fs out of a running zope instance...) I don't have a production application in deployed with Zope3 (yet), but a quick 'tree' informs me that repozo.py isn't shipped with Zope-3.2. Can anyone tell me why not?
