Yep, unless you added a CRC (and accepted the performance hit) to each
record the best you could do is verify that the database is consistent.
That would still be quite valuable, though - all block headers are valid,
indexes don't point out into oblivion, etc.
I expect there are only a handful of huge databases running a heavy load -
the vast majority are probably tens no larger than 10's (maybe hundreds) of
megabytes, or do not experience a heavy update load?
