What is stored in memory in the default configuration is the namespace
structure, file metadata, ACLs, locks ... Everything but the binary content
of the resources, actually.
You should uncomment that part in the config file to use it (with hSQL) :
<!--nodestore classname="slidestore.reference.JDBCDescriptorsStore">
<parameter name="driver">org.hsql.jdbcDriver</parameter>
<parameter name="url">HypersonicSQL:slide</parameter>
<parameter name="user">sa</parameter>
<parameter name="password"></parameter>
</nodestore>
<securitystore>
<reference store="nodestore" />
</securitystore>
<lockstore>
<reference store="nodestore" />
</lockstore>
<revisiondescriptorsstore>
<reference store="nodestore" />
</revisiondescriptorsstore>
<revisiondescriptorstore>
<reference store="nodestore" />
</revisiondescriptorstore-->
Since configuring a database can be tricky, it's not enabled by default.
There is work being done on an all filesystem store, which will eventually
replace the memory store (which is still very useful for doing some quick
testing).
