Hello,
can someone help me understand this parameter: http://www.lmdb.tech/doc/group__mdb.html#gaa2506ec8dab3d969b0e609cd82e619e5
1. why does a user need to specify this apriori? Other databases don't require user to declare the size of the db beforehand. its not something a user knows in advance. 2. quoting: "The size of the memory map is also the maximum size of the database.". what happens when the size of the db overflows this parameter? 3. what is the trade-off if a user sets this parameter too large than is necessary?
S.
