It was briefly mentioned in the article, but this is exactly how couchdb shuts down:
On-disk, CouchDB never overwrites committed data or associated structures, ensuring the database file is always in a consistent state. This is a “crash-only” design where the CouchDB server does not go through a shut down process, it’s simply terminated.

(Please, no mongodb vs. couchdb wars here)

- SoftwareMaven 16y agoI think that is actually where I read it. It must have resonated internally and became the topic (in my mind).
