PageSize Property

BerkeleyDB

The size of the pages used to hold items in the database, in bytes.

Namespace:  BerkeleyDB
Assembly:  libdb_dotnet48 (in libdb_dotnet48.dll) Version: 4.8.24.0

Syntax

C#
public uint PageSize { get; set; }
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Property PageSize As UInteger
Visual C++
public:
property unsigned int PageSize {
	unsigned int get ();
	void set (unsigned int value);
}

Remarks

The minimum page size is 512 bytes, the maximum page size is 64K bytes, and the page size must be a power-of-two. If the page size is not explicitly set, one is selected based on the underlying filesystem I/O block size. The automatically selected size has a lower limit of 512 bytes and an upper limit of 16K bytes.

For information on tuning the Berkeley DB page size, see Selecting a page size in the Programmer's Reference Guide.

If creating additional databases in a single physical file, this parameter will be ignored and the page size of the existing databases will be used.
