This is just a FYI: I had my first metakit failure today that corrupted the database. I have a process that deletes objects from tables by finding the object id, searching for it in the table and then deleting it wholesale.
It wasn't intelligent enough to find table "spans" to remove blocks of objects at a time, so it was deleting a row at a time and commiting the data occasionally. The database started at 363MB and grew to 2,097,153KB before the views got corrupted. Before that, it was as happy as a clam and chugging away.
So I guess that I now know the size limit of mk databases. The take home message is deleting rows can rapidly grow memory. Is there an alternate strategy that I can use in this case for deleting rows from a database?
Anyway, I can keep better track of database size know that I know the limitations a little better.
