> Why wrap the stored object in a database? Thanks Matthew -- Our data is somewhat volatile but since our frozen objects can get pretty big, like others we're always looking for an all-around better "shared" solution for volatile data which is required during almost every session.
From what I've learned (mostly from the generous people on this list), our local mysql, Storable and other usages does a great job at meeting those needs. In reality, the ideal case would be if our data were non-changing and could simply be loaded at server start up. So, anything that emulates that non-lossy effect across multiple machines and changing data, comparable efficiency, and perhaps elimination of the freeze/thaw step altogether would be great.
