Re: Against sqlite3!!!

Hi Hong,

I'm not very knowledgable with cl-* stuff but doesn't your
implementation load all key-value pairs at once?  That would be quite a
disadvantage compared to a DB approach where I'd naturally expect that
only the value I'm asking for is loaded.

Also, how would it ensure consistency when I have 2 parallel emacs
sessions (like one for mail/irc and one for programming/editing) where
session 1 modifies the value of key A and the other of key B?  It looks
like the values of the kv-store that gets saved later will win.  In case
that's the emacs session which has modified B, it'll revert A to the
state before the other session modified it, no?

If that were true, I'd say your resist!.el is a non-starter in the
current form.  It should at least load only values explicitly asked for
and only persist/override actually changed values.  A trivial solution
could use one file per key.  Not sure how sensible that is.

Bye,
