So the state here is: - We need to include zodbpickle in order to make pickle loading backward- compatible with Python 2. Without this you cannot take you Python 2 ZODB and open it in Python 3. (zodbpickle's docs provide details.) - Make "noload()" work in zodbpickle. I ported the code from cPickle, but it does not work. This prohibits GC without the ability to load the objects. "noload()" also needs a Python implementation and tests. I only know that "noload()" is not working because of a failure in the ZODB tests. - Python 2 and 3 pickles have different sizes due to some added padding and some other reasons Marius has reported. Using zodbpickle will not fix that, since it is a fork of _pickle.c from Python 3.3. We simply should fix the tests to live with that fact. That's pretty much it.
