Could we switch to one issue/feature per thread, please? I think the overall approach is chosen already, and everyone agreed with it. And each detail now has to be discussed separately, and overall discussion continued here. I.e, I have few words about design of counters and indexes (and my favorite NoSQL Berkeley DB), but not arrays/lists. -- Best regards, Yuri V.
