Well... what about backup?  Do I have to shut my site down to do a nightly backup?

Postgres is more efficient than Zope / ZODB at using multiple processors.

Also, what if a software bug (or a hardware bug, or an OS bug) corrupts some data structure that is in the middle of Data.FS?  Admittedly, I don't know much about it - but no database that I know of uses a single file for everything.

Perhaps the ZEO is better suited for this task.  Does CPS work using the ZEO as a backing store instead of ZODB directly??

Thanks,
