After torturing my setup with different scripts and trying to to rebuild the normal workload, I am confident, after having run watch -n1 -d "db4.2_stat -c" for some time in parallel, the sched_yield() loop occurs, because the bdb-backend runs out of lockers. At least this is what I get from ITS#2030 and from various other resources (mostly documentation from Sleepycat). So I suggest for the package to create a DB_CONFIG with _at least_ 5000 lockers, locks and lock objects. The default of 1000 is just to low and will get exploitet in no time by even a little database. (Don't close this bug yet, further observation has to happen.)
