Hello, We are using BerkeleyDB since a decade - but we are searching for something more lightweight. LMDB is what we are looking for ... ^^ The small code and the benchmark-results are very impressive! A question: We have a server with 4 GB RAM. One of the BerkeleyDB-files has about 20 GB.This particular database is a kind of archive - hardly read and hardly written (maybe once per minute). Is it possible to "mmap()" a 20 GB database into the RAM?
Yes.
If yes, will the server start "swapping"?
No.
Thanks a lot Markus
