Vacuum the sqlite rpmdb if necessary
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Check if there is 20MB in free pages and then execute a VACUUM command.
The threshold can be controlled by the _sqlite_vacuum macro. Don't add
this to the macros file on purpose as we don't want people to get
involved with such details. Here it is mainly used for testing.

Using a 20 MB threshold should prevent the vacuuming to happend too often
while still triggering after large transactions. As we install new
headers first and then remove the old ones transactions leave behind large
amounts of free pages.

We do not use PRAGMA auto_vacuum here as it does not defrag the
database and only frees empty pages. So it still requires running VACUUM
from time to time. Freeing the empty pages would get rid of the condition we
use here for running VACUUM.

Using pure C for the macro expansion on purpopse in case we want to back
port this.
