Subject: [PATCH] Prevent uncontrolled sqlite WAL growth during large
transactions
Sqlite WAL threshold of 1000 pages is way too low for rpmdb as a single
header often exceeds that, but disabling the checkpointing entirely can
cause the WAL to grow to multiple gigabytes during large distro update
transactions, which isn't healty either. Bump the threshold to 10000
pages which caps the WAL size to tens of megabytes, which hopefully
is a reasonable balance between performance on rotational disks (anybody
remember those?) and diskpace consumption.
Also drop no longer meaningful link to %_flush_io configuration.
