We are facing a problem where we need to store 270 fields per item. The
fields are laboratory measurements of a patient - 40 measurement values
for
7 timepoint. The fields need to be accessed per timepoint, per
measurement
and all fields for one patient once. There will be over 10000 patients,
distributed under different hospital items (tree-like, for permission
reasons). Data is not accessed for two patients at once, so we don't
need to
scale the catalog.
So I am curious about how we make Plone scale well for this scenario.
Since your needs are rather extreme, you have a few options — Andreas'
advice on splitting up the objects is probably a good idea.
I'd also urge you to check out Dexterity — although still experimental,
it's much, much faster and less CPU/memory-hungry than AT. From what I
have seen of your skills, you'd probably be fine with its current state,
and help test a future part of Plone. :)
