can be reused by a new page or can be unmapped from virtual memory and you'll
see an `unexpected fault address` panic when accessing it.
+* Bolt uses an exclusive write lock on the database file so it cannot be
+ shared by multiple processes.

buckets that have random inserts will cause your database to have very poor
page utilization.
