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.
