<?> bdb: Logging region out of memory; you may need to increase its size

From: Kahn, Peter <Peter.Kahn_at_ironmountain.com>

Hi, I just received a question from one of my users who received the
message:
"Berkeley DB error for file system...while openning 'strings' table:
  bdb: Logging region out of memory;..."

I looked at the same file he did (about 6 hours later) and got no such
message. I looked on the Tigris site and read about the Lock subsystem.
I then read up on the url in the DB_CONFIG file [
 http://www.sleepycat.com/docs/ref/lock/max.html] regarding the three
lock settings:
        set_lk_max_locks
        set_lk_max_lockers
        set_lk_max_objects

So, all three are set to 2000 by default and using db_stat I can see
that at rest I'm at about 60-70% capacity. I have a reasonably powerful
Linux box with 2GB of ram serving my repository and I figure I can
increase them by 2-4 times without issue.

Question 1: Am I right in thinking that increasing the lock settings
the right way to go?

Question 2: The docs state that too high a value may result in a wasted
resources, is timing a checkout or export a reasonable barometer of how
high is too high or should I capture other statistics?

Any help would be appreciated. (Oh, and I did read the part about how
any modification to these must be followed by a recovery, so I'm set to
do that)

Thanks...
