    Well the fingerprint database isn't going to get much smaller, you're just gonna end up with two big fingerprint databases And what space you might save you'd expand on more storage being taken up because you're not sis'ing between mailboxes and journals Plus EVSVR is slow regardless, I don't think it will be any better splitting them, I am confused about using VSG'e based on date ranges?

Something for you to consider, a mailbox archive will not span multiple Vault Store Groups so you could potentially end up with multiple archives for a mailbox which could prove confusing for end users.

Running a repair should be a rarity, if you have to run repairs very often you have a bigger issue going on.  Repairs can also be broken up into smaller date ranges to allow less chance they will fail due to an issue you described.  Lastly, EVSVR does have much better performance in the new version of EV.
