I guess, I was too quick here. It's MDB_TRPAGE_SIZE * 16. Also, I guess, txn->mt_rpages are just pointers to in-memory cached pages (or chunks?), so the memory consumption of those is much higher. The docs mention "chunks of 16 pages"; does that refer to mt_rpages? If so, a single mt_rpages pointer can actually hold on to 16 * 4K = 64 KB? Thus a MDB_TRPAGE_SIZE 4096 can go up to 256 MB memory? That changes the picture of course... PS.: let me express the irony once more that "removing data" is the most costly operation here ;-)
