I’d like to create the database once and then use it with tpcc\_start. I’m changing my driver; however, I can’t afford tpcc\_load every time I change my driver. Is there a way to save the files created by tpcc\_load and restore once I mount the filesystem after installing modified driver. Please advise.

Thanks
