> From my testing, currently it is 4.2.52+patches.  However, testing with the 
pre-releases from Sleepycat of 4.6 indicated it was faster than 4.2.52 
across the board.  Both 4.4 and 4.5 come in slower than 4.2 and 4.6 in my 
testing.  So from a throughput (read & write) standpoint, 4.2 is what I've 
found to be the "best" until 4.6 came along.
