> Do you have benchmarks of lmdb when the working set is much larger than memory? I couldn't find any.

Where did you look? This is a sample using DB 5x and 50x larger than RAM http://www.lmdb.tech/bench/hyperdex/

There are plenty of other larger-than-RAM benchmarks there.

Hm. That seems to be comparing against leveldb, which at the time also used mmap. (It's since switched the default for performance reasons)
