|Any recommendations on a lightweight database (no extra server process)

I have written a LMDB backend for bogofilter, and am using it
since about mid of July 2018. (It is not yet released, but done.)
It took a week to learn using LMDB and having implemented that
backend (actually two in one, choosable by preprocessor). It
could have been shorter if i would have accepted that one error
was on LMDB side (it resulted in the second optional
implementation, but which i do not use, actually, because the
other one is nice, especially compared to how postfix does it).
It is very fast, and very small. If Berkeley DB is enough for
you, LMDB could be a good option! As it comes from the OpenLDAP
project, it should be enterprisable:
#?0|essex:nail.git$ apk info lmdb|grep -A1 size
lmdb-0.9.23-r0 installed size:
94208
#?0|essex:nail.git$ apk info db|grep -A1 size
db-5.3.28-r1 installed size:
1572864
#?0|essex:nail.git$ ll /usr/lib/liblmdb.so.0.0.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 79576 Nov 29 11:36 /usr/lib/liblmdb.so.0.0.0*
#?0|essex:nail.git$ ll /usr/lib/libdb-5.3.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1558496 Nov 21 17:45 /usr/lib/libdb-5.3.so*
It has one "problem" which may be none for you: it grows as it
touches pages; i usually dump my DB once a month, and reload it
thereafter, which saves ~50% or something like that:
#?0|essex:.bogofilter$ ll

|Any thoughts on lightweight no database server ideas? I may just use

None thereof.
|Thanks
Well i can send you the implementation (or look at the bogofilter
file at sourceforge [1]): as i learned while i did it, you will
find comments which get you going.
