GDBM curiosity
****** message to minivend-users from Mike Lerley <mike@bfent.com> ******
How is the gdbm file structured? I have used it in several applications
and can't figure out the relationship between original file size and
"gdbm-ed" file size. I have 8 MB ascii input files that end up as 16 MB
gdbm files, and 51 MB ascii files that end up as 25 MB gdbm files. Is
there a way to predict the size?
