Tashin, we are already using the "no_mbcache" option name, so would prefer
to keep that working.  It would be OK to accept both option names to mean
the same thing, and only document the "nombcache" option.

Great, thanks.

This one credit isn't a huge deal.  In general, the number of credits reserved
can affect performance if they get too large, especially if there are a large
number of threads active, since this will cause premature journal flushing and
reduce the number of shared blocks written in the same transaction.

Thanks, I'm just going to go through those patches.
