The lmdb package is a fast, compact, key-value embedded data store. It uses memory-mapped files, so it has the read performance of a pure in-memory database while still offering the persistence of standard disk-based databases, and is only limited to the size of the virtual address space
Development versions of BLFS may not build or run some packages properly if dependencies have been updated since the most recent stable versions of the book.
