I wonder if per-directory is really necessary; I guess I'm worrying about the case were the WC tree has lots of directories with few files. Do we not have the whole tree in a single Sqlide DB now? Depending on the schema, it might be possible to load the status information from the database in one single query. (On a side note ... it's all very well to shun specialized caching and expect your database layer do do it for you [optimally], but I see no reason to believe that Sqlite would be significantly better at that than BDB.) -- Brane
