[Schevo-devel] Scalability

[Matthew Scott]

Extents themselves don't take up much room in memory and are quick to load.

There's one per entity class definition in the schema.  Entities are
created on the fly when requested from extents, and nothing in Schevo
holds onto those entity instances, except for byproducts of them like
Transactions.  Once they are out of scope, they are candidates for GC,
yes.
