AFAIK, read-write mode is only activated by loading/shredding documents (via
pf:add-doc() in XQuery or shred_doc() in MIL) with a fre % > 0.

I cannot give any qualified recoomendation about the "optimal" %, yet(?);
most probably depends on your expected workload;
10% seems a "nice" value to start with...
0% measn read-only; hence (AFAIK) also no appends are allowed/possible.

As said, shred_doc() in MIL does still work (and should be functionally
equivalent to pf:add-doc() in XQuery --- AFAIK, they use the very same
implementation).
shred_doc() is "deprecated" as we plan to encourage users to stay in the
XQuery domain, only, also for document management (instead of falling back
to MIL for that) --- since W3C has not (yet?) specified any "real" document
management functionality in XQuery (except from say fn:doc() and
fn:collection()) we invented our own pf:add-doc() and pf:del-doc().
(shred_doc() is btw. documented see `help("shred_doc()");` and/or my
previous posting on this thread.)
I agree that we should add the documentation for our XQuery document
management extensions ASAP ...
(but documenting first and implementing then is also no good option...)
