Moving towards ACID is interesting.

Some ideas

• use fdatasync and crash if it errors
• provide an option to check the consistency of the database (check all records against their table's schemas)
• add an error check to each record, being a hash of the record string, with our without the hash slot present, with an option to add a check to every field of the record, by adding a hash for every field of the record, as well

Also consider copy on write mode
