If SMKEYDATABASE is not being used, you could leave it there (OR Rename it) - the code path would not be invoked unless the policy configurations have been configured to do so (e.g. Sign an Assertion).
Then when regular scheduled maintenance recycle of Services kick in OR you recycle for some other purpose the effect should take place, Nevertheless, I doubt SMKEYDATABASE is loaded into Policy Server Memory (I know for sure it is loaded into WAOP Memory).
Going forward beyond R12.5 we have CDS in Policy Store and no more SMKEYDATABASE as flat file.
