As what type of object do you plan to store messages? Archetypes-based
objects or more lightweight?
AT objects are just too heavy and all the catalogueing will cause write
conflicts and grind your site to a halt, since messages come in at a
high rate.
Lightweight objects can help a lot, especially if your container is just
a BTreeFolder which does not need to reindex when its contents are changed.
I know I'm not answering your question, I'm just suggesting possibly
easier alternatives.
