Description Thierry Vignaud 2012-02-22 16:08:00 CET 
For years BDB cache was set to 1mb.
However with rpm4.9 its value was switched from 1mb to 64mb, which kills performance on FC16.
Thus RH switched it back to 1Mb in January updates (rpm-4.9.1.2-5.fc16)

I think we should revert too before releasing mga2.
