Barry,

just out of curiosity....

have been toying with Oracle storage though would be much happier 
using Berkeley as and when it is ready: one question: IIRC Matt's 
notes for DCOracle state that Oracle storage is ca. 6 times slower 
than file storage, any idea how Berkeley storage shapes-up?

cheers,

Garry
