No, it will store all cached item data (payload) in files. It will still keep all relational data, e.g. which folder contains which items, in the database. That's what a database is good at. > One valuable gain would be to get rid of the mysql dependency, but it won't > because the dependency wasn't removed from the akonadi-server package Right. Post version 1.2 code has support for Postgres as well, though I think this requires a manually setup Postgres instance, much like using an external MySQL instance. Haven't tried either yet so I can't comment on the process for such a setup. Anyway, using a different database is orthogonal to storing cached item data in files. Though some databases might be better when only having to deal with small data blocks. Cheers, Kevin
