Description: DbEnv::set_mp_mmapsize
Files that are opened read-only in the pool (and that satisfy a few
other criteria) are, by default, mapped into the process address space
instead of being copied into the local cache. This can result in
better-than-usual performance because available virtual memory is
normally much larger than the local cache, and page faults are faster
than page copying on many systems. However, it can cause resource
starvation in the presence of limited virtual memory, and it can result
in immense process sizes in the presence of large databases.
The DbEnv::get_mp_mmapsize method sets the maximum file size, in bytes,
for a file to be mapped into the process address space. If no value is
specified, it defaults to 10MB.
The database environment's maximum mapped file size may also be configured using the
environment's <a href="../../db4-devel-4.7.25/ref/env/db_config.html#DB_CONFIG">DB_CONFIG</a> file. The syntax of the entry in that
file is a single line with the string "set_mp_mmapsize", one or more whitespace
characters, and the size in bytes.
Because the <a href="../../db4-devel-4.7.25/ref/env/db_config.html#DB_CONFIG">DB_CONFIG</a> file is read when the database environment
is opened, it will silently overrule configuration done before that
time.
The DbEnv::set_mp_mmapsize method configures a database environment, not only operations
performed using the specified <a href="../../db4-devel-4.7.25/api_cxx/env_class.html">DbEnv</a> handle.
The DbEnv::set_mp_mmapsize method may be called at any time during the life of the
application.
The DbEnv::set_mp_mmapsize method
either returns a non-zero error value
or throws an exception that encapsulates a non-zero error value on
failure, and returns 0 on success.

Parameters 
 mp_mmapsize<ul compact><li>The mp_mmapsize parameter is the maximum file size, in bytes,
for a file to be mapped into the process address space.</ul>
 
 Errors
The DbEnv::set_mp_mmapsize method
may fail and throw
<a href="../../db4-devel-4.7.25/api_cxx/except_class.html">DbException</a>,
encapsulating one of the following non-zero errors, or return one of
the following non-zero errors:
 
EINVAL<ul compact><li>If the method was called after <a href="../../db4-devel-4.7.25/api_cxx/env_open.html">DbEnv::open</a> was called; or if an
invalid flag value or parameter was specified.</ul>

Description: DbEnv::get_mp_mmapsize
The DbEnv::get_mp_mmapsize method returns the maximum file map size.
The DbEnv::get_mp_mmapsize method may be called at any time during the life of the
application.
The DbEnv::get_mp_mmapsize method
either returns a non-zero error value
or throws an exception that encapsulates a non-zero error value on
failure, and returns 0 on success.

Parameters 
 mp_mmapsizep<ul compact><li>The DbEnv::get_mp_mmapsize method returns the
maximum file map size in mp_mmapsizep.</ul>
