While not exactly the most rigorous link, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LevelDB#Bugs_and_Reliability seems like an okay place to start. One thing I can attest to is that, when Armory used LevelDB (0.8 - 0.92, IIRC), quite a few users had DB corruption issues, particularly on Windows. Even when a switch to LMDB occurred for 0.93, loads of complaints would come in from users whose LevelDB-based Core DBs would fail. I know that the guy who moved Armory over to LMDB would love to have more time in the day so that he could write a Core patch that does the same. It's a very sore spot for him. (FWIW, LMDB seems to work quite nicely, at least once you patch up the source a little bit. The latest version is also compatible with Core's cross-compiling scheme. I'd love to see it added to Core one day.) Doug
