Description
Notes

This optional key name controls the frequency with which Equinox closes tables that are no longer in use. When Equinox accesses a table it is held open, even when it is no longer in use. This can improve performance on some applications, if the table is subsequently accessed in that session. The table will be closed automatically when the application is closed, but will remain open in between, unless Equinox needs to close it to free-up memory for other operations.

Valid values are:

  • 0 - Table remains open until the application is closed (default)
  • 1 - Equinox periodically checks (frequency set by DirectoryUpdateInterval) for open tables and closes them if not currently in use
  • 2 - Equinox closes tables as soon as they are no longer being accessed. In addition, it periodically checks (frequency set by DirectoryUpdateInterval) for open tables, and if necessary flushes any written information to disk and resets the table open and written flag which would cause the table to be reported as corrupt if a system crash occurred.
