Of course I get quite a number of log messages but that's still
acceptable. However with statuscache enabled the number of log messages
increases dramatically. As I said it increases at a factor of ~10.

The other log with skiplist doesn't hurt so much because it's not so
often. Still it doesn't seem to make much sense to log that message
whenever a seen db is opened, which it looks like in my tests. Maybe
that's only here because we run all db's as skiplist.
