No, there are things we do not store in the DB. The major issues are  
attachments, config data, and VC data. While I suppose you could put  
all of those (really the whole Trac env folder) on a network file  
system, this still isn't true replication. I don't know of any good  
filesystem replication systems that don't cost $$$$$.
