I recommend totally AGAINST  BDB ... its so full of problems you will get 
ulcers.
PBL is very good, but I've recently made the switch to the internal "hash" 
DB and am very happy.
The only major downside of "hash" DB is you cant actually get the terms 
dumped out for debugging,
you only get the hash-value of the terms.

Other drawback
* it CAN get full then your screwed ... I make a 40MB hash DB and have no 
problems ...
* Cant import/export to other DB formats
any other drawbacks ?   I've converted all my DB's to hash and like it very 
much.
