[thelist] DBM databases... while were on this topic

[Daniel Fascia]

Since we seem to be having a pretty in depth and cool comparison of data management methods, lets throw in the good old DBM database.
I for one quite like using it for simple PHP apps but as far as I can see it is very very unpopular...

What are its quirks? How fast is it?

love to hear from someone who has compared it to other methods
