It uses mmaped files and spin-locks to achieve good write performance, although I don't think resilience in the face of crashes was a high priority. However the architecture-dependent spin lock code may be handy if you ever decide to follow this route.
I glanced at it last night. It doesn't offer any crash resistance so it isn't particularly useful, though it does seem like an interesting piece of software. Larry
