                 result in inaccurate file modification times and other file-level

                <p>
                 If set, Berkeley DB will automatically remove log files that are no
                 longer needed.
            </p>
                <p>
                 Automatic log file removal is likely to make catastrophic recovery
                 impossible.
            </p>
                <p>
		 Replication Manager applications operate in a
		 group-aware manner for log file removal, and automatic log
		 file removal simplifies the application.
       	    </p>
                <p>
                 Replication Base API applications will rarely want to configure automatic log
                 file removal as it increases the likelihood a master will be unable to
                 satisfy a client's request for a recent log record.

                <p>
                 If set, maintain transaction logs in memory rather than on disk.  This
                 means that transactions exhibit the ACI (atomicity, consistency, and
                 isolation) properties, but not D (durability); that is, database
                 integrity will be maintained, but if the application or system fails,
                 integrity will not persist.  All database files must be verified
                 and/or restored from a replication group master or archival backup
                 after application or system failure.
            </p>
                <p>
                 When in-memory logs are configured and no more log buffer space is
                 available, Berkeley DB methods may return an additional error value,
                 <code class="literal">DB_LOG_BUFFER_FULL</code>.  When
                 choosing log buffer and file sizes for in-memory logs, applications
                 should ensure the in-memory log buffer size is large enough that no
                 transaction will ever span the entire buffer, and avoid a state where
                 the in-memory buffer is full and no space can be freed because a
                 transaction that started in the first log "file" is still active.

                 If set, zero all pages of a log file when that log file is created. 
                 This has shown to provide greater transaction throughput in some
                 environments. The log file will be zeroed by the thread which needs to
                 re-create the new log file.  Other threads may not write to the log
                 file while this is happening.
