Hi David, Allow me to derail the conversation a bit. :)
Have you looked into using the LevelDB backend at all? This option will be supported officially in the 1.0 release (slated for late Sept), and, in our initial testing, is looking like it'll be competitive with Inno. Level also offers better recovery and is append-only (which are just a few of its advantages over Inno). There is a longish thread about it on the list [1] and a blog post [2] worth reading that'll give you more info on why we're adding support for it. *** Mandatory caveat - as I said, it's not supported yet, and you shouldn't be running it in prod until that happens. That said, if your timeline permits and you have the freedom time to experiment, I would be interested to see how it stacks up against Inno for your use case.*** Hope that helps.
