ok, I know that , but it's running on windows, and there was a change in
BDB,
which needs this dump / load cycle and would switch for FSFS. because of
portability issues.

well, I didn't expect that checkouts will be faster, but log searches should
be speeded up a little. But main reason would be simply, that the

archived.
