From the reading I have been doing on this list, this is a bdb bug that has no known timeline for a fix. Some people say it's avoidable by setting a large cache size (big enough for your entire db) in your DB_CONFIG file. Others avoid the problem by using solaris.
List: Please correct me if I'm wrong, but that is the conclusion I have come to dealing with this problem.
Anyone know exactly what is going wrong in bdb, are they aware of the bug?
