<p>(One year later...)</p>
<p>I was rechecking this code again and I noticed that yes, indeed, the file is not removed, so I have two questions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Would you say that, given that the <code>--drop</code> option removes the tables needed for update, it could also remove the flat file?</li>
<li>I don't seem to find the definition of <code>node_persistent_cache.reset()</code>, which I think is the right function to implement such a thing.</li>
</ul>
