Why 3.6, and not 4? I'll bet v4 is better at this. > I > would really appreciate some feedback from the experts before I go > ripping out the Berkeley DB code. Others can answer the questions about whether the FS can handle it. I would suggest that you consider a real database, though, at least until Reiser4 gets a good way (sys_reiser4?) of handling multiple files -- otherwise, you can expect to lose a lot of speed to all the open(2) calls. I don't know anything about the status of sys_reiser4. If it's almost done, you may want to wait for it, but I don't think it's almost done. Maybe MySQL would do the trick? You may end up having to benchmark it yourself...
