------------------------------------------------------------
[~cshannon] I have moved this fix to the shutdown phase b/c the recovery work
can be significant on very large stores. The down side is temporary disk space
usage by the index which is a better trade off IMHO.
I also added an info log message to indicate that the some recovery is going on.

> Project: ActiveMQ
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Broker
> Affects Versions: 5.14.3
> Reporter: Christopher L. Shannon
> Assignee: Christopher L. Shannon
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 5.15.0, 5.14.4

>
> I have discovered an issue with the KahaDB index recovery after an unclean
> shutdown (OOM error, kill -9, etc) that leads to excessive disk space usage.
> Normally on clean shutdown the index stores the known set of free pages to
> db.free and reads that in on start up to know which pages can be re-used. On
> an unclean shutdown this is not written to disk so on start up the index is
> supposed to scan the page file to figure out all of the free pages.
> Unfortunately it turns out that this scan of the page file is being done
> before the total page count value has been set so when the iterator is
> created it always thinks there are 0 pages to scan.
> The end result is that every time an unclean shutdown occurs all known free
> pages are lost and no longer tracked. This of course means new free pages
> have to be allocated and all of the existing space is now lost which will
> lead to excessive index file growth over time.
