Minetest Forums

Hi, I changed my copy of minecraft to use LevelDB as default DB Engine. I had no problems so far and an better performance

I would suggest to make LevelDB the default DB for minetest. Or are there any known issues?

In my experience, singleplayer with LevelDB had more stuttering than with SQLite, and that was on a SSD (Samsung 840 PRO, 256 GB).

The issue is that LevelDB is a pain to compile on Windows.
Also, SQLite exists since the year 2000, however LevelDB was first seen in 2012. In those 12 years there were many improvements in the area about data loss and speed.

Then it should be possible to select the database when I create a new world. It's annoying to edit world.mt any time I create a new world

Also LevelDB can corrupt your world. It happened to me twice and I switched back to sqlite.
