<p>Applications must now pass the DB_NOSYNC flag to the methods - <code class="literal">DB-&gt;remove</code>, <code class="literal">DB-&gt;rename</code>, <code class="literal">DB_ENV-&gt;dbremove</code>, and <code class="literal">DB_ENV-&gt;dbrename</code>, to avoid a multi-database file to be flushed from cache.
This flag is applicable if you have created the database handle in a non-transactional environment.
</p>
<p>By default, all non-transactional database remove/rename operations cause data to be synced to disk.
This can now be overridden using the DB_NOSYNC flag so that files can be accessed outside the environment after the database handles are closed.
