Hi Hugh,

Thanks a lot for the pointer. I'll have a look and let you know.
I am still really curious to see how it's feasible to integrate any external OWL reasoner with Virtuoso :)

It hasn't been done due to lack of APIs that make very low-level DBMS integration possible. We have to have an option for reasoning and inference that scales. For instance, all the reasoning and inference functionality supported natively by Virtuoso scales from single-server instances (DBpedia static and live) all the way up to the 59 Billion+ live LOD Cloud cache we maintain.

Delegating inference and reasoning to a 3rd part module or service comes with serious performance costs, at all levels of integration.

Share some reasoner APIs and we can comment further about the specific interface, if need be.
