Thanks for all your replies - I am encouraged. Which helps, because I'll 
be in trouble if I'm caught in front of a computer over the weekend but 
who cares ...

Are there any obvious culs-de-sac with Schevo? Where does it run out of 
puff? I'm thinking about the speed Apache can throw mod_python requests 
at it.

I read Durus is maybe limited to a million objects (records?). Is that 
still the case? I also read somewhere that there might be a BDB backend 
for Durus.
