Databanks with many keys freeze the game

[dlbd]

Databank operations take a long time when the databank stores many keys.

The following script freezes the game for almost 2 minutes:

databank.clear()

local t_start = system.getTime()

for i = 1, 3000 do
    databank.setIntValue(tostring(i), 0)
end

system.print(string.format("Total time: %.10f", system.getTime() - t_start))

Suggestions:

• optimize databank operations to take less time
• limit the max number of keys in a databank to less than 500
• manually decrement the Lua instruction counter (hookcount of lua_State) in databank functions (to make the databank functions more "expesive" to call and have them trigger the CPU overload error)
