The README and web page both include the following text: Durus is best suited to collections of less than a million instances with relatively stable state. Where does the figure of around a million come from? Is it just pulled from the air, or does it stem from FileStorage having an in-memory dictionary mapping OIDs to file positions? I'm storing a simulation model. Converting our largest model results in just over 100,000 objects, so that's already 10% of the way to the limit. Toss in a few extra copies of the model for backups, versioning, or experimentation, and I'll probably reach the million-object mark fairly quickly. Should I be worried? Should I start thinking about how to make FileStorage more memory-efficient? --amk
