<p>
Sets the mutex alignment, in bytes. It is sometimes advantageous to
align mutexes on specific byte boundaries in order to minimize
cache line collisions. This parameter specifies an alignment for
mutexes allocated by Berkeley DB.
</p>
<p>
The syntax of this parameter in the <a href="../../programmer_reference/env_db_config.html#env_db_config.DB_CONFIG" class="olink">DB_CONFIG</a> file is a single
line with the string <code class="literal">mutex_set_align</code>, one or
more whitespace characters, and the mutex alignment in bytes.
Because the DB_CONFIG file is read when the database environment
is opened, it will silently overrule configuration done before
that time.
