If true, Berkeley DB page-faults shared regions into memory when initially creating or joining a Berkeley DB environment. In addition, Berkeley DB writes the shared regions when creating an environment, forcing the underlying virtual memory and filesystems to instantiate both the necessary memory and the necessary disk space. This can also avoid out-of-disk space failures later on.

# Syntax

C#

    public bool InitRegions

Visual Basic (Declaration)

    Public InitRegions As Boolean

Visual C++

    public:
    bool InitRegions

# Remarks

In some applications, the expense of page-faulting the underlying shared memory regions can affect performance. (For example, if the page-fault occurs while holding a lock, other lock requests can convoy, and overall throughput may decrease.)
