Now comes the part that I can not understand. This simultaneous adding to the BTree seem to cause the conflict error, since the BTree and Bucket are also persistent object themselves. This would mean that ZODB is not suitable for the cases of simultanous adding to a BTree by multiple threads, like in my case for session data.
exactly
But since ZODB and zope.session are so widely used, I can not image that this could be the case, otherwise how can anyone be reliably using ZODB for session? So I must be missing some very important points.
it is the case ... there are two workarounds imho 1.don't write to the session if it does not change, so if you do an apache bench without sending the client id cookie, a write is done on each request
additionally every anonymous visit writes to zodb, you should avoid this by using default values if no session data is available
in earlier versions of zope the __getitem__ method created a btree at first access, but this should be fixed now, so it depends on the version of zope u use, if you have an older version then you can't even look if data is there without writing to zodb
2.my recommendation is to use memcached for session data ... take a look at http://svn.zope.org/repos/main/lovely.memcached/trunk
