DBRepair development

[ChuckPa]

While I like the term purge as well.. I have ‘remove’ coded in the menu

BUT it responds to both ‘purge’ or ‘remove’

Try it, you’ll see I reference both for now so we can gauge which looks best.

ALSO

I have the other part of this release ready for you all to kick the tires.

1. ZFS users will like this
2. Initial support for customizing DBRepair is a reality

Database ‘page_size’ may now be set. (DBREPAIR_PAGESIZE)

1. Environment variable DBREPAIR_PAGESIZE allows setting the DB’s internal page size.
   – Linux ext4 & xfs users need not bother with this as the filesystem already matches the DB page size (4096)
   – ZFS users can now increase the page size to match their ZFS datasets and recover some of the performance lost to HDDs

2. Must be a multiple of 1024
   – May not exceed 65536 (SQLite limit)
   – Rounds to the nearest 1024 multiple if you can’t do the math! lol

3. Can be undone by unsetting the environment variable and rerunning “automatic”

Cache age maximum may now be specified (DBREPAIR_CACHEAGE)

1. Environment variable DBREPAIR_CACHEAGE (export DBREPAIR_CACHEAGE=x)
2. A simple positive integer (x) measured in days

SEE THE README for details.
