    Description

      3 items:

      1. The documentation should explain that setting this flag causes subsequent allocations to usePowerOf2, and that it doesn't change your existing data. I've had a few questions about this.
      2. The documentation exclaims with a big warning that it takes a write lock on the database. This is true, but it should be a very short lock (see above).
      3. There is a warning about a bug fixed in 2.2.1. How long do we keep these warning up, or should we mention that it was fixed?
