Thanks for posting these, Michael.  I find this interesting.

One benefit of the Postgresql storage is that pg has a very fast
bulk import mechanism (the COPY statement); if you ever need to load
many (millions) records on anything more than a one-off basis, it can be
a real help.

How could the bulk import mechanism be useful for a Durus Storage?


You also could have a Postgresql process running on another box
entirely, which opens up some other avenues for scalability although
I've not looked at latency or performance in that scenario at all.

I guess you realize you can have the Durus StorageServer running
on another box from your client.   (If anyone does that, however,
please be certain access to the StorageServer port is strictly restricted
to trusted clients. )


Still for me it was primarily a learning experience; I understand
the insides of Durus slightly better (not that I really needed to
for what I do) and it was fun to do. I can't possibly imagine
writing a storage back end for ZODB ;-) so writing one for Durus was
fun in and of itself.

Yes.
