DOCS: Document the new tunables to produce warnings if databases grow unexpectedly big.
commit 9ed58fef4991725f75509433496f4d5ffae0ae87
Author: Ronnie Sahlberg <ronniesahlberg at gmail.com>
Date: Mon May 21 13:11:38 2012 +1000
DEBUG: Add checks for and print debug messages when 1) a database contains very many records, 2) when a database is very big, 3) when a single record is very big.
Add tunables to control when to log these instances and allow it to be completely turned off by setting the threshold to 0
