Use Tx store for /users and /roles and DB store for rest ?

[Nick Longinow <ni...@vanhooseassociates.com>]

Is it possible to do this ?  I am finding that the column length limitation
in Oracle is 4000 characters, which will limit the length of a property
string in the Properties table.  So, you can not update the members of a
group (ie, users) to have more than about 50 users (given the size of each
xml fragment representing a user member of the /roles/users group.

Is it possible then to have part of the slide tree go to the Tx store, so as
to get around this limitation, and the rest go to a Db store ?

I'm considering that also. I thought of putting Apache in front, and 
implement it using .htaccess but that doesn't scale well (too hard to 
maintain).

I'm currently toying with an idea of implementing a ServletFilter and 
put that in front of the WebdavServlet, that is a non-intrusive and 
somewhat clean approach where I can consider Slide a shrink-wrap 
standalone product. If it's the best approach I don't know, that's still 
to be determined. But do let me know what you end up doing, I'm curious!
