[ZODB-Dev] RE: lost "implementer"

[Tamas Hegedus]

Hi!

Somewhere I have red (in a blog) comparing java and python. If I 
remember well the main reason to write that was the Boa (?) constructor 
written by java programmers...

So: It states that Python packages should be as flat as possible (use 
less names in the namespace (?)), since the name space is resolved 
during running time not at compilation time in case of Python (or 
something like that; I am not a programmer). So if you have a deeply 
structured package (or more packages) you may suffer in performance at 
runtime. (Boa is very slow; although it is use also a lot of 'reflection'.)

What are you comments?
Do you have some experience with performance problem using eggs (or very 
'deep' packages?

--------------
My point of view: it would be great to have ZODB, ZOE, ZCatalog in 
different eggs :-)
