Is this Nutch 2.x of 1.x? In 1.x you can set a urlfilter to remove unwanted 
entries and update the db.

I don't follow? How do you use bdb in Nutch? Nutch 2.x with Gora doesn't 
support this either iirc.

Shared memory? I'd go for a memcached pool, much easier and works in a cluster 
instead of just a single machine. Take care, your mappers and reducers are not 
idempotent anymore if you read/write during such a phase.
