Doing some experiments with LOG=0, killing the process during a transaction 
loses all of the data since the last close. Like

open
transaction A
close
open
transaction B
transaction C <- killed with -9

will leave the db with transaction A. Transaction B can be recovered with 
the recover tool, but there's no indication on start that the previous 
shutdown wasn't clean, unless I check for the lock file, or something.
