This is normal.  The changes are not visible unless the commit  
completes fully.  Some data will have been written, but that space  
will be re-used on the next commit.  Files never shrink in size, but  
you can use db.SaveTo() to write a new compact version of the datafile.

Interrupting a commit does not damage files.
