I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "additional
support for very large source-safe databases".  If
I'm not correctly understanding your question, you
may want to be more specific.

We already have a number of customers who have
imported databases of larger than 4GB.

It remains the case that the important variable
when talking about Vault scalability is how
many files are in the repository.  We have
customers with around 100,000 files.  Internally,
we test Vault with a repository that contains
500,000 files.

Vault 2.0 offers faster performance and more
scalability than any release we've done so far. 

Regarding your offer of a copy of your VSS database:
We do periodically obtain VSS databases from customers
(under NDA) for the purpose of resolving specific
problems.  If it becomes necessary for us to have
a copy of your data to help resolve any difficulties
you have, we can talk about it then.

Subject: [vault-list] Large VSS Databases

Does V2.00 have any additional support for very large source-safe
databases e.g. > 4Gb? (I know this is pushing the limits of source-safe
hence the need to migrate.)
 
Eric - we did discuss this once before and you said you would be
interested in using a copy of our vss database to investigate this. If
this still something you want to pursue feel free to contact me offline.
