What I meant is that if the compromised host was unable to use broken boltdb cache, the cache should be zeroed and repopulated. Was it really hours of such cache rebuild vs hours of trying to fix the boltdb?

Btw I am happy I got only small amounts of data in any of bolt databases...

This isn't a boltdb we designed. It's just containerd. I am probably not doing the outage justice, because "blitz and repopulate" is a time-honored strategy here.
