Problem is not inefficient disk space utilization. Problem is that instead of developing a proper solution, this ad-hoc approach is presented like normal practice. But since you mention it, when clients receives a lot of duds instead of real messages from an archive, it's a problem, because it noticeably slows fetching data. Of course, this is far from being the biggest problem with XMPP. -- Ненахов Андрей Директор ООО "Редсолюшн" (Челябинск) (351) 750-50-04 http://www.redsolution.ru _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list Info: https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards Unsubscribe: standards-unsubscr...@xmpp.org _______________________________________________
