This article sheds some light on a problem I've had for years:

The software product I develop stores its data in a local database using H2, stored in a single file. Users tend to have databases gigabytes in size.

After reading this article, I start to understand why my users occasionally get corrupted databases. A hard problem to solve.

An easy problem to solve. LMDB never corrupts.
