 Do we have "DON'T use on AFS/NFS" warnings in prominent enough places to

I must confess that I didn't know that we were making any use of BerkeleyDB. However, I would have recommended that we use it as an alternative to the Python pickle format, if we weren't already using it.



Except for the mmap()/NFS issue, IMO BerkeleyDB is the fastest, most robust, open source database solution around. No, it's not SQL. But it is the key technology differentiator between MySQL and MaxSQL, and is what allows MaxSQL to finally satisfy all of the ACID criteria.


        But it's not SQL.
