LargeCollections not installs onto 3.6.
I got used to work with relational tables; how data shall be organized
in goods? For example: I have million agreements and two million sales
contacts. Semantically, information about Agreements is on the same
level that information about Sales Contacts are and they have
many_to_many relation. I fought, I need organize like
root := db root.
root at: #Contracts put: aContracts.
root at: #SalesContacts put: aSalesContacts.
then, if new user wants to work with contract #123, database shall allow
find it quickly, "check out" for change somehow;
user will change contract information in local image and commit changes
back to database. All transaction shall be possible in a fraction of a
second I think.
so, how to use GOODS + Squeak? If such combination not allows to work
with data of 5GB, than ok, I'm looking in wrong direction.
