(description
"The @dfn{Lightning Memory-Mapped Database} (LMDB) is a high-performance
transactional database. Unlike more complex relational databases, LMDB handles
only key-value pairs (stored as arbitrary byte arrays) and relies on the
underlying operating system for caching and locking, keeping the code small and
simple.
The use of ‘zero-copy’ memory-mapped files combines the persistence of classic
disk-based databases with high read performance that scales linearly over
multiple cores. The size of each database is limited only by the size of the
virtual address space — not physical RAM.")
