In defense of BDB, I have written a multi-process application (in C)  
that handles billions of transactions per year, and I have never  
encountered any database corruption. The application has been running  
non-stop for the past four years.

It wasn't always so, however. It took me some time to make sure I was  
doing everything correctly.

So perhaps what you're asking for is not a database that is more  
reliable, but rather something that is more tolerant of sloppy  
programming.

Personally, I'd like to see SKS re-implemented in C.
