+    Switch back to former, much smaller BDB memory pool size (RhBug:752897)
+    
+    - A larger cache is beneficial in various scenarios, but triggers
+      horrible worst-case performance under memory pressure (or so my
+      current theory goes, there might be other factors too). The
+      worst-case degration is orders of magnitude bigger than the best-case
+      improvements from the larger cache and for many use-cases doesn't
+      make a whole lot difference.  We could/should tune the cache with
+      priorizing indexes and all, and perhaps dynamically select the
+      cache size but for now, the 1Mb cache size is known to "just work".
