Thank you for explaining that so clearly. I don't have much of an idea of what sort of sizes a database program is designed to handle, but I do know that a terabyte is a shed load of data (I have a 5tb external hard drive) a lot more than my teeny file, even including all of my Realms.

I also know that the massive organisation I used to work for with its 90,000 people and millions (yes, millions) of customers used a database like that for staff records and customer data and we never had a database failure. Bandwidth failure, yes, but not a DB failure.

I was quietly ignoring the Eyores anyway, but am much happier now that's been explained.

That is absolutely true. Although so far I had a lot of crashes, annoying bugs and the like, I haven't lost a single bit of information. Thanks a lot for that.
