H3: back-bdb and back-hdb

back-bdb and back-hdb were signficantly slower than back-mdb and
|
|
|
|
|
required significant tuning of multiple parameters to maximize
|
|
|
|
|
performance. back-mdb requires no tuning and provides all the
|
|
|
|
|
functionality previously provided via back-bdb and back-hdb.
