How would you represent the "breaks" in the content as you are downloading a webpage into separate pages? You can easily manage this with a combination of the exclusionlist.txt, and creating some stanzas in your .pluckerrc file, breaking a large site into several smaller sites. Sitescooper may be able to do this as well, I think.

I don't see the advantage though, the overall size of 10 smaller databases which make up one website vs. one larger database of the same website will always be larger than one single database (assuming the exact same content).

This would actually be a smart way to use the plucker:/dbname syntax in a URI fragment, instead of the local files it represents now (when did that slip in under the radar?) Mike, how hard would it be to launch another db from within an existing db, assuming the parser could create the right ID for it using a URI like <a href="plucker:/wired.pdb">Wired</a> or something like that? /d
