#include <db_cxx.h> int DbEnv::mutex_set_align(u_int32_t align);
Set the mutex alignment, in bytes.
         It is sometimes advantageous to align mutexes on specific byte
         boundaries in order to minimize cache line collisions.   The
         DbEnv::mutex_set_align() method specifies an alignment for mutexes
         allocated by Berkeley DB.
    
The database environment's mutex alignment may also be configured using the environment's DB_CONFIG file. The syntax of the entry in that file is a single line with the string "mutex_set_align", one or more whitespace characters, and the mutex alignment in bytes. Because the DB_CONFIG file is read when the database environment is opened, it will silently overrule configuration done before that time.
         The DbEnv::mutex_set_align() method configures a database
         environment, not only operations performed using the specified 
         DbEnv  handle.
    
         The DbEnv::mutex_set_align() method may not be called after the
         DbEnv::open()  method is
         called. If the database environment already exists when 
         DbEnv::open()  is called, the
         information specified to DbEnv::mutex_set_align() will be ignored.
    
         The DbEnv::mutex_set_align() 
            
            
                method either returns a non-zero error value or throws an
                exception that encapsulates a non-zero error value on
                failure, and returns 0 on success.
