I'm quite aware that it is COW - this issue is specific to COW trees. Transactions must be removed in order, they can not be removed out of order. It is about how pages are reclaimed for the freelist

Incorrect.

We may have to "agree to disagree" then.

Pure, utter nonsense. You're simply wrong, and at this point you're spewing FUD.

You know what - I made a mistake. I read "free list" when it should be "pending free list". Which makes much more sense, but is poorly signaled in the naming conventions.

I also misread this comment about "incorrect". You meant "incorrect" about the reclaiming of freelist not about the ordering.

Instead of trying to have a constructive discussion, I believe your responses here were quite hostile, and their "short" nature has led to further miscommunication. My mistake was answering too quickly. I have removed myself from the list because I really just don't want to be involved in this style of discussion in the future.

You claimed to have actual code showing a misbehavior in LMDB when the described misbehavior is impossible.

That's not a misunderstanding or a mistake - that's pure fabrication. Dishonesty is absolutely not welcome. Bye.
