* Use SQLite 3.7.0's write-ahead logging (WAL mode). This is a lot
...
faster than the old mode when fsyncs are enabled, because it only
performs an fsync() when doing a checkpoint, rather than at every
commit. Some timings for doing a "nix-instantiate /etc/nixos/nixos
-A system" after modifying the stdenv setup script:
42.5s - SQLite 3.6.23 with truncate mode and fsync
3.4s - SQLite 3.6.23 with truncate mode and no fsync
32.1s - SQLite 3.7.0 with truncate mode and fsync
16.8s - SQLite 3.7.0 with WAL mode and fsync, auto-checkpoint
every 1000 pages
8.3s - SQLite 3.7.0 with WAL mode and fsync, auto-checkpoint
every 8192 pages
1.7s - SQLite 3.7.0 with WAL mode and no fsync
The default is now to use WAL mode with fsyncs. Because WAL doesn't
work on remote filesystems such as NFS (as it uses shared memory),
truncate mode can be re-enabled by setting the "use-sqlite-wal"
option to false.

* Okay, putting a lock on the temporary directory used by importPath()
...
doesn't work because the garbage collector doesn't actually look at
locks. So r22253 was stupid. Use addTempRoot() instead. Also,
locking the temporary directory in exportPath() was silly because it
isn't even in the store.

* Canonicalise timestamps in the Nix store to 1 (1970-01-01 00:00:01
...
UTC) rather than 0 (00:00:00). 1 is a better choice because some
programs use 0 as a special value. For instance, the Template
Toolkit uses a timestamp of 0 to denote the non-existence of a file,
so it barfs on files in the Nix store (see
template-toolkit-nix-store.patch in Nixpkgs). Similarly, Maya 2008
fails to load script directories with a timestamp of 0 and can't be
patched because it's closed source.
This will also shut up those "implausibly old time stamp" GNU tar
warnings.
