Why is it that everytime someone points out something that he thinks is wrong
with a free project people get so worked up?

BDB is very good, we use it here with a 17Gb database (a single file!), which
is probably one of the biggest deployments, certainly the biggest one in the
subversion community (which is where we use it). We store all our released
linux distributions there, including updates. We wouldn't trust it to BDB if
there were serious problems with it. It works, and works well. We even had
unexpected power failures and not a single bit was lost.

This is getting off-topic fast, I don't want to start a flame war. I already
solved my problem, let's move on.
