https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/13333 - seems to have caused issues recovering many people's databases at this point - for example, #1107. Investigate workarounds for this - either changing our WAL config to enable compression, or patching out the mentioned deadlock.

Would rather the enabling compression method than carrying another patch coming from the perspective of a nixpkgs maintainer ;p.

FWIW, while trying different repair options for #1107, I found this (TY for the mention, that's how I got here), clicked through to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/13333, and said "cool, I'll try just reverting https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/12643" - but it turned out it was [already reverted in v0.5.0-rc.6](https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/rocksdb/commit/3ce04794bcfbbb0d2e6f81ae35fc4acf688b6986), which is what I was running That said, it doesn't seem to be in rc.8; I'm currently attempting repair using that, will report back if it seems to be any better
