Definitions:

`memPageSize`	The memory page size (default: 256). (Note that when using a disk database, this should be a power of two and at least 8 times smaller than disk page size)
`diskPageSize`	The persistent storage ("disk") page size (default: 0). Typically 4096 bytes; zero for all-in-memory databases
`maxConnections`	The maximum number of database connections (default: 100)
`connectionContextSize`	The recovery connection context (default: 0 - no recovery connection context)
`maxDiskDatabaseSize`	The maximum size for a disk database (default: 0 - unlimited)
`diskFileExtensionQuantum`	The quantum for increasing the size of a persistent database file (can help to reduce file fragmentation)
`redoLogLimit`	The `REDO` transaction log threshold. After reaching this a checkpoint is performed and the log is truncated (Note that the checkpoint can be performed only after a transaction commit, so the size of the log file can become larger than the specified limit. A zero value means to use the implementation specific default value)
`delayedCommitThreshold`	The maximum size of uncommitted changes (delayed transaction commits) when using the `CommitPolicy.Delayed` policy (default: 0 - 1/3 of the available disk cache)
`maxDelayedTransactions`	The maximum number of delayed transaction commits when using the `CommitPolicy.Delayed` policy (default: 0 - unlimited)
`defaultCommitPolicy`	The default commit policy for new connections (default : `CommitPolicy.SyncFlush`)
`logType`	The transaction log type (default: `LogType.RedoLog`)
`hashLoadFactor`	The hash table load factor (default: 100%). This is a criterion for hash table extension
`indexOptimisticLockThreshold`	The maximum number of active write transactions when using optimistic locking of B-Tree indexes (default: 0 - unlimited)
`mode`	A combination of `DB_MODE_*` bits (default: 0)
`databaseSnapshotFilePath`	The path to the file from where a database snapshot will be loaded at open time (default: null - no snapshot to load)
`stringEncoding`	The default string encoding (string encoding can be sepcified using the `Encoding` annotation for each field separately) (default: UTF-8)
`classes`	The classes to be stored in the database. Only instances of the classes listed can be stored in the database. This parameter has no default value and must be explicitly specified by the application
`diskClassesByDefault`	Indicates whether the classes specified in `classes` will be stored on disk. Also disk classes may be marked explicitly using the `disk()` attribute of `Persistent` annotation
`compactClassesByDefault`	Indicates whether the classes specified in `classes` will be implicitly marked as `compact`. Also compact classes may be marked explicitly using the `compact()` attribute of `Persistent` annotation
`nonatomicClassesByDefault`	Indicates whetherclasses specified in `classes` will be implicitly marked as `nonatomic`. Also `nonatomic` classes may be marked explicitly using the `compact()` attribute of `Persistent` annotation
`dictionaryNoSort`	Make the dictionary compatible with the `mcocomp` utility called with the `-nosort` option
`maxClasses`	The maximum number of classes in the database (this is needed to support dynamic table creation)
`maxIndexes`	The maximum number of indexes in the database (this is needed to support dynamic table creation)
`maxDictionarySize`	The maximum size of the database dictionary (this is needed to support dynamic table creation)
`clusterParams`	Cluster configuration parameters
`license_key`	The eXtremeDB license key (if required)
`schedPolicy`	The scheduling policy for transactions with the same priority
`sqlWorkspaceLimit`	The SQL workspace quota. Default is 0 - unlimited
`compressionLevel`	The compression level: 0..9, 0 - no compression, -1: default compression level
`compressionMask`	A bitmap of page kinds that should be compressed
`expectedCompressionRatio`	Used to allocate the compression page map (note that the virtual database space cannot be larger than the physical size compression ratio
`cipherKey`	The database encryption key
`backupMapSize`	The size of the backup counters array (in bytes, should be a power of two); ignored if `maxDiskDatabaseSize` is set. Default is 0 - disable the backup feature
`backupMinPages`	The number of pages for the last exclusive pass of the backup procedure, set to zero to disable treshold. Default is 0
`backupMaxPasses`	The maximum number of passes before exclusive pass of backup procedure. Default is 10
`backupMapFile`	The name of a file that will be used to store temporary backup data on the database `close`() call.
`fileBackupDelay`	The delay in milliseconds between writing file backup blocks to minimize backup impact on performance
