    ///   - **Expected behavior** (once RocksDB bug is fixed): Only forces a flush
    ///     if the total WAL size exceeds the specified threshold. When a flush is
    ///     not forced and WAL writing is enabled, RocksDB includes WAL files in
    ///     the checkpoint that are replayed on open to reconstruct recent writes.
    ///     This avoids creating small SST files during periods of low write volume,
    ///     at the cost of additional checkpoint storage space for the copied WAL.

    ///     to SST. See: <https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/14193>

    ///   the checkpoint.
