The keys are not written until shutdown. I could create a method that could write them to disk and make a copy of the datafile. It could be called "createSnapShot" You could call it programatically. There are details to think through. Should we try to load from a snapshot on startup? How many snapshots should we store? Could we create these via a timer? I guess this could all be configurable.

We believe this can be done safely if we turn off the jvm, but we would need to copy safely the files while the jvm is running. However it seems that the key files are written only when you turn off the jvm (at least the size changes when we turn off the jvm, so we suspect that they are not synchronized to disk in normal operations). We can make sure at application level that nobody writes in the cache during the file copy process, but is this sufficient? Can anybody recommend a solution to this issue?
