> easier to > replicate, manage, backup, and scale. > Well... scaling is an issue for me too. I have problems myself with the db structure DSPAM uses for example in MySQL. A lot of fields are signed integers. Allowing me just to use 32768 entries. This might be fine and dandy for most users but having a user limit of 32768 seams to me a bit low.. 32K users might sound okay to most of the people but imagine how quickly you would run into problems if you create and delete a lot of users. Each time you add then remove then add again a user to DSPAM the index counter get's one entry up and never reuses that number again.
Anyway... I think it would be the right time to make a total rework of the db structure for all DSPAM storage. Getting those useless signed field elements replaced by something more suited for DSPAM would be a big plus for DSPAM from my viewpoint. > -Troy > // Steve -- Psssst!
