We have a heavily used database, which stores 100G+ data, and is frequently 
updated. When we close and reopen the database, it takes up to hours to open it.

Is it possible to config(Options) to make Db::Open() returns quickly?

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open a database
2. Doing a lot Sets/Deletes...
3. Close data
4. Reopen it(Db::Open())

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expecting Db::Open() returns within one second. But it blocks for an hour.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

1.14

Please provide any additional information below.

I had a similar issue but in small scale, see https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/leveldb/cAUHHY2MrNk and the reason is that leveldb automatically compacts on Open(). To avoid this, CompactRange(NULL, NULL) can before used before closing the db.
