Description

I tested on a 3.0.6 switching rudder-slapd to mdb instead of hdb (which is the default).

mdb creates fixed size databases, which by default give little room for storing stuff (about 10M by default, as seen in the manpage:

       maxsize <bytes>
              Specify  the maximum size of the database in bytes. A memory map
              of this size is allocated at startup time and the database  will
              not be allowed to grow beyond this size. The default is 10485760
              bytes. This setting may be  changed  upward  if  the  configured
              limit needs to be increased.

I then happened to store a large amount of inventories with stess_suite/tsung to test something.

Of course, after a few seconds I hit the storage size limit and something funny happened:
