This is pretty explanatory... Your cachesize and checkpoint directives come 
before the "database bdb" directive.

2.2.17 btw is very old, and had some serious leak issues, which is probably 
why it is crashing.  I suggest upgrading to 2.2.24, the current stable 
release.

"These censorship operations against schools and libraries are stronger
than ever in the present religio-political climate. They often focus on
fantasy and sf books, which foster that deadly enemy to bigotry and blind
faith, the imagination." -- Ursula K. Le Guin
