      SERVER-25025 targets inefficiencies in startup initialization in MongoDB's use of WiredTiger.

      Even with these optimizations, given a large number of collections, we could still benefit from parallelizing the startup procedure. It is currently single-threaded and mostly CPU-bound, spending almost all CPU time-per-collection in setTableLogging(). This uses an expensive "metadata:create" cursor to determine whether or not a table is logged.
