Just out of curiosity, why do you want an OODB?

SQLite has a plethora of tools, powerful query capabilities, can be migrated with very little pain, and can act a bit like an OODB using GLORP.

I have lost too many data sets to proprietary OODBs to ever trust one again.

Just out of curiosity, which object database is recommended for Pharo?
Something that is reliably up-to-date as Pharo changes.

Indeed. And rewriting something that also uses an OODB is going to kill
productivity even more. I���ve taken a look at what would be needed to
support magma on pharo a few years ago. Chris always told us he uses it
professionally on squeak and has not enough capacity to keep up with
changes in pharo without having a customer/maintainer for it. Twice a year
or so someone asks about magma on pharo and takes a look. AFAIK there are
no real obstacles to a port, but magma uses a lot of deep implementation
specifics that will take an experienced smalltalker to deal with, and a
lot
of mailing list archeology as pharo changed a lot since magma worked on
pharo last
