Update documentation

Summary:
Changed leveldb documentation with rocksdb in doc/index.html. Added some of the important options from options.h to doc.

Also removed benchmark files and impl.h, since this is all replaced by RocksDB wikis.

Test Plan: -

<h1>LevelDB Benchmarks</h1>
<p>Google, July 2011</p>
<hr>
<p>In order to test LevelDB's performance, we benchmark it against other well-established database implementations. We compare LevelDB (revision 39) against <a href="http://www.sqlite.org/">SQLite3</a> (version 3.7.6.3) and <a href="http://fallabs.com/kyotocabinet/spex.html">Kyoto Cabinet's</a> (version 1.2.67) TreeDB (a B+Tree based key-value store). We would like to acknowledge Scott Hess and Mikio Hirabayashi for their suggestions and contributions to the SQLite3 and Kyoto Cabinet benchmarks, respectively.</p>
<p>Benchmarks were all performed on a six-core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5650 @ 2.67GHz, with 12288 KB of total L3 cache and 12 GB of DDR3 RAM at 1333 MHz. (Note that LevelDB uses at most two CPUs since the benchmarks are single threaded: one to run the benchmark, and one for background compactions.) We ran the benchmarks on two machines (with identical processors), one with an Ext3 file system and one with an Ext4 file system. The machine with the Ext3 file system has a SATA Hitachi HDS721050CLA362 hard drive. The machine with the Ext4 file system has a SATA Samsung HD502HJ hard drive. Both hard drives spin at 7200 RPM and have hard drive write-caching enabled (using `hdparm -W 1 [device]`). The numbers reported below are the median of three measurements.</p>
<h4>Benchmark Source Code</h4>
<p>We wrote benchmark tools for SQLite and Kyoto TreeDB based on LevelDB's <span class="code">db_bench</span>. The code for each of the benchmarks resides here:</p>
<ul>
<li> <b>LevelDB:</b> <a href="http://code.google.com/p/leveldb/source/browse/trunk/db/db_bench.cc">db/db_bench.cc</a>.</li>
<li> <b>SQLite:</b> <a href="http://code.google.com/p/leveldb/source/browse/#svn%2Ftrunk%2Fdoc%2Fbench%2Fdb_bench_sqlite3.cc">doc/bench/db_bench_sqlite3.cc</a>.</li>
<li> <b>Kyoto TreeDB:</b> <a href="http://code.google.com/p/leveldb/source/browse/#svn%2Ftrunk%2Fdoc%2Fbench%2Fdb_bench_tree_db.cc">doc/bench/db_bench_tree_db.cc</a>.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Custom Build Specifications</h4>
<ul>
<li>LevelDB: LevelDB was compiled with the <a href="http://code.google.com/p/google-perftools">tcmalloc</a> library and the <a href="http://code.google.com/p/snappy/">Snappy</a> compression library (revision 33). Assertions were disabled.</li>
<li>TreeDB: TreeDB was compiled using the <a href="http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/lzo/">LZO</a> compression library (version 2.03). Furthermore, we enabled the TSMALL and TLINEAR options when opening the database in order to reduce the footprint of each record.</li>
<li>SQLite: We tuned SQLite's performance, by setting its locking mode to exclusive. We also enabled SQLite's <a href="http://www.sqlite.org/draft/wal.html">write-ahead logging</a>.</li>
</ul>
<h2>1. Baseline Performance</h2>
<p>This section gives the baseline performance of all the
databases. Following sections show how performance changes as various
parameters are varied. For the baseline:</p>
<ul>
<li> Each database is allowed 4 MB of cache memory.</li>
<li> Databases are opened in <em>asynchronous</em> write mode.
(LevelDB's sync option, TreeDB's OAUTOSYNC option, and
SQLite3's synchronous options are all turned off). I.e.,
every write is pushed to the operating system, but the
benchmark does not wait for the write to reach the disk.</li>
<li> Keys are 16 bytes each.</li>
<li> Value are 100 bytes each (with enough redundancy so that
a simple compressor shrinks them to 50% of their original
size).</li>
<li> Sequential reads/writes traverse the key space in increasing order.</li>
<li> Random reads/writes traverse the key space in random order.</li>
</ul>

<p>LevelDB outperforms both SQLite3 and TreeDB in sequential and random write operations and sequential read operations. Kyoto Cabinet has the fastest random read operations.</p>
<h2>2. Write Performance under Different Configurations</h2>
<h3>A. Large Values </h3>
<p>For this benchmark, we start with an empty database, and write 100,000 byte values (~50% compressible). To keep the benchmark running time reasonable, we stop after writing 1000 values.</p>
<h4>Sequential Writes</h4>
<table class="bn bnbase">
<tr><td class="c1">LevelDB</td>
<td class="c2">1,100 ops/sec</td>
<td class="c3"><div class="bldb" style="width:234px">&nbsp;</div></td></tr>
<tr><td class="c1">Kyoto TreeDB</td>
<td class="c2">1,000 ops/sec</td>
<td class="c3"><div class="bkct" style="width:224px">&nbsp;</div></td></tr>
<tr><td class="c1">SQLite3</td>
<td class="c2">1,600 ops/sec</td>
<td class="c3"><div class="bsql" style="width:350px">&nbsp;</div></td></tr>
</table>
<h4>Random Writes</h4>
<table class="bn bnbase">
<tr><td class="c1">LevelDB</td>
<td class="c2">480 ops/sec</td>
<td class="c3"><div class="bldb" style="width:105px">&nbsp;</div></td></tr>
<tr><td class="c1">Kyoto TreeDB</td>
<td class="c2">1,100 ops/sec</td>
<td class="c3"><div class="bkct" style="width:240px">&nbsp;</div></td></tr>
<tr><td class="c1">SQLite3</td>
<td class="c2">1,600 ops/sec</td>
<td class="c3"><div class="bsql" style="width:350px">&nbsp;</div></td></tr>
</table>
<p>LevelDB doesn't perform as well with large values of 100,000 bytes each. This is because LevelDB writes keys and values at least twice: first time to the transaction log, and second time (during a compaction) to a sorted file.
With larger values, LevelDB's per-operation efficiency is swamped by the
cost of extra copies of large values.</p>
<h3>B. Batch Writes</h3>
<p>A batch write is a set of writes that are applied atomically to the underlying database. A single batch of N writes may be significantly faster than N individual writes. The following benchmark writes one thousand batches where each batch contains one thousand 100-byte values. TreeDB does not support batch writes and is omitted from this benchmark.</p>
<h4>Sequential Writes</h4>
<table class="bn">
<tr><td class="c1">LevelDB</td>
<td class="c2">840,000 entries/sec</td>

<h3>C. Synchronous Writes</h3>

of all of the databases. Since this change significantly slows down the
benchmark, we stop after 10,000 writes. For synchronous write tests, we've
disabled hard drive write-caching (using `hdparm -W 0 [device]`).</p>

<h3>D. Turning Compression Off</h3>
<p>In the baseline measurements, LevelDB and TreeDB were using
light-weight compression
(<a href="http://code.google.com/p/snappy/">Snappy</a> for LevelDB,
and <a href="http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/lzo/">LZO</a> for
TreeDB). SQLite3, by default does not use compression. The
experiments below show what happens when compression is disabled in
all of the databases (the SQLite3 numbers are just a copy of
its baseline measurements):</p>

<p>LevelDB's write performance is better with compression than without
since compression decreases the amount of data that has to be written
to disk. Therefore LevelDB users can leave compression enabled in
most scenarios without having worry about a tradeoff between space
usage and performance. TreeDB's performance on the other hand is
better without compression than with compression. Presumably this is
because TreeDB's compression library (LZO) is more expensive than
LevelDB's compression library (Snappy).<p>
<h3>E. Using More Memory</h3>
<p>We increased the overall cache size for each database to 128 MB. For LevelDB, we partitioned 128 MB into a 120 MB write buffer and 8 MB of cache (up from 2 MB of write buffer and 2 MB of cache). For SQLite3, we kept the page size at 1024 bytes, but increased the number of pages to 131,072 (up from 4096). For TreeDB, we also kept the page size at 1024 bytes, but increased the cache size to 128 MB (up from 4 MB).</p>

<p>SQLite's performance does not change substantially when compared to
the baseline, but the random write performance for both LevelDB and
TreeDB increases significantly. LevelDB's performance improves
because a larger write buffer reduces the need to merge sorted files
(since it creates a smaller number of larger sorted files). TreeDB's
performance goes up because the entire database is available in memory
for fast in-place updates.</p>
<h2>3. Read Performance under Different Configurations</h2>
<h3>A. Larger Caches</h3>
<p>We increased the overall memory usage to 128 MB for each database.
For LevelDB, we allocated 8 MB to LevelDB's write buffer and 120 MB
to LevelDB's cache. The other databases don't differentiate between a
write buffer and a cache, so we simply set their cache size to 128
MB.</p>

<p>As expected, the read performance of all of the databases increases
when the caches are enlarged. In particular, TreeDB seems to make
very effective use of a cache that is large enough to hold the entire
database.</p>
<h3>B. No Compression Reads </h3>
<p>For this benchmark, we populated a database with 1 million entries consisting of 16 byte keys and 100 byte values. We compiled LevelDB and Kyoto Cabinet without compression support, so results that are read out from the database are already uncompressed. We've listed the SQLite3 baseline read performance as a point of comparison.</p>

<p>Performance of both LevelDB and TreeDB improves a small amount when
compression is disabled. Note however that under different workloads,
performance may very well be better with compression if it allows more
of the working set to fit in memory.</p>
<h2>Note about Ext4 Filesystems</h2>
<p>The preceding numbers are for an ext3 file system. Synchronous writes are much slower under <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4">ext4</a> (LevelDB drops to ~31 writes / second and TreeDB drops to ~5 writes / second; SQLite3's synchronous writes do not noticeably drop) due to ext4's different handling of <span class="code">fsync</span> / <span class="code">msync</span> calls. Even LevelDB's asynchronous write performance drops somewhat since it spreads its storage across multiple files and issues <span class="code">fsync</span> calls when switching to a new file.</p>

<title>Leveldb file layout and compactions</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Files</h1>
The implementation of leveldb is similar in spirit to the
representation of a single
<a href="http://labs.google.com/papers/bigtable.html">
Bigtable tablet (section 5.3)</a>.
However the organization of the files that make up the representation
is somewhat different and is explained below.
<p>
Each database is represented by a set of files stored in a directory.
There are several different types of files as documented below:
<p>
<h2>Log files</h2>
<p>
A log file (*.log) stores a sequence of recent updates. Each update
is appended to the current log file. When the log file reaches a
pre-determined size (approximately 4MB by default), it is converted
to a sorted table (see below) and a new log file is created for future
updates.
<p>
A copy of the current log file is kept in an in-memory structure (the
<code>memtable</code>). This copy is consulted on every read so that read
operations reflect all logged updates.
<p>
<h2>Sorted tables</h2>
<p>
A sorted table (*.sst) stores a sequence of entries sorted by key.
Each entry is either a value for the key, or a deletion marker for the
key. (Deletion markers are kept around to hide obsolete values
present in older sorted tables).
<p>
The set of sorted tables are organized into a sequence of levels. The
sorted table generated from a log file is placed in a special <code>young</code>
level (also called level-0). When the number of young files exceeds a
certain threshold (currently four), all of the young files are merged
together with all of the overlapping level-1 files to produce a
sequence of new level-1 files (we create a new level-1 file for every
2MB of data.)
<p>
Files in the young level may contain overlapping keys. However files
in other levels have distinct non-overlapping key ranges. Consider
level number L where L >= 1. When the combined size of files in
level-L exceeds (10^L) MB (i.e., 10MB for level-1, 100MB for level-2,
...), one file in level-L, and all of the overlapping files in
level-(L+1) are merged to form a set of new files for level-(L+1).
These merges have the effect of gradually migrating new updates from
the young level to the largest level using only bulk reads and writes
(i.e., minimizing expensive seeks).
<h2>Manifest</h2>
<p>
A MANIFEST file lists the set of sorted tables that make up each
level, the corresponding key ranges, and other important metadata.
A new MANIFEST file (with a new number embedded in the file name)
is created whenever the database is reopened. The MANIFEST file is
formatted as a log, and changes made to the serving state (as files
are added or removed) are appended to this log.
<p>
<h2>Current</h2>
<p>
CURRENT is a simple text file that contains the name of the latest
MANIFEST file.
<p>
<h2>Info logs</h2>
<p>
Informational messages are printed to files named LOG and LOG.old.
<p>
<h2>Others</h2>
<p>
Other files used for miscellaneous purposes may also be present
(LOCK, *.dbtmp).
<h1>Level 0</h1>
When the log file grows above a certain size (1MB by default):
<ul>
<li>Create a brand new memtable and log file and direct future updates here
<li>In the background:
<ul>
<li>Write the contents of the previous memtable to an sstable
<li>Discard the memtable
<li>Delete the old log file and the old memtable
<li>Add the new sstable to the young (level-0) level.
</ul>
</ul>
<h1>Compactions</h1>
<p>
When the size of level L exceeds its limit, we compact it in a
background thread. The compaction picks a file from level L and all
overlapping files from the next level L+1. Note that if a level-L
file overlaps only part of a level-(L+1) file, the entire file at
level-(L+1) is used as an input to the compaction and will be
discarded after the compaction. Aside: because level-0 is special
(files in it may overlap each other), we treat compactions from
level-0 to level-1 specially: a level-0 compaction may pick more than
one level-0 file in case some of these files overlap each other.
<p>
A compaction merges the contents of the picked files to produce a
sequence of level-(L+1) files. We switch to producing a new
level-(L+1) file after the current output file has reached the target
file size (2MB). We also switch to a new output file when the key
range of the current output file has grown enough to overlap more then
ten level-(L+2) files. This last rule ensures that a later compaction
of a level-(L+1) file will not pick up too much data from level-(L+2).
<p>
The old files are discarded and the new files are added to the serving
state.
<p>
Compactions for a particular level rotate through the key space. In
more detail, for each level L, we remember the ending key of the last
compaction at level L. The next compaction for level L will pick the
first file that starts after this key (wrapping around to the
beginning of the key space if there is no such file).
<p>
Compactions drop overwritten values. They also drop deletion markers
if there are no higher numbered levels that contain a file whose range
overlaps the current key.
<h2>Timing</h2>
Level-0 compactions will read up to four 1MB files from level-0, and
at worst all the level-1 files (10MB). I.e., we will read 14MB and
write 14MB.
<p>
Other than the special level-0 compactions, we will pick one 2MB file
from level L. In the worst case, this will overlap ~ 12 files from
level L+1 (10 because level-(L+1) is ten times the size of level-L,
and another two at the boundaries since the file ranges at level-L
will usually not be aligned with the file ranges at level-L+1). The
compaction will therefore read 26MB and write 26MB. Assuming a disk
IO rate of 100MB/s (ballpark range for modern drives), the worst
compaction cost will be approximately 0.5 second.
<p>
If we throttle the background writing to something small, say 10% of
the full 100MB/s speed, a compaction may take up to 5 seconds. If the
user is writing at 10MB/s, we might build up lots of level-0 files
(~50 to hold the 5*10MB). This may signficantly increase the cost of
reads due to the overhead of merging more files together on every
read.
<p>
Solution 1: To reduce this problem, we might want to increase the log
switching threshold when the number of level-0 files is large. Though
the downside is that the larger this threshold, the more memory we will
need to hold the corresponding memtable.
<p>
Solution 2: We might want to decrease write rate artificially when the
number of level-0 files goes up.
<p>
Solution 3: We work on reducing the cost of very wide merges.
Perhaps most of the level-0 files will have their blocks sitting
uncompressed in the cache and we will only need to worry about the
O(N) complexity in the merging iterator.
<h2>Number of files</h2>
Instead of always making 2MB files, we could make larger files for
larger levels to reduce the total file count, though at the expense of
more bursty compactions. Alternatively, we could shard the set of
files into multiple directories.
<p>
An experiment on an <code>ext3</code> filesystem on Feb 04, 2011 shows
the following timings to do 100K file opens in directories with
varying number of files:
<table class="datatable">
<tr><th>Files in directory</th><th>Microseconds to open a file</th></tr>
<tr><td>1000</td><td>9</td>
<tr><td>10000</td><td>10</td>
<tr><td>100000</td><td>16</td>
</table>
So maybe even the sharding is not necessary on modern filesystems?
<h1>Recovery</h1>
<ul>
<li> Read CURRENT to find name of the latest committed MANIFEST
<li> Read the named MANIFEST file
<li> Clean up stale files
<li> We could open all sstables here, but it is probably better to be lazy...
<li> Convert log chunk to a new level-0 sstable
<li> Start directing new writes to a new log file with recovered sequence#
</ul>
<h1>Garbage collection of files</h1>
<code>DeleteObsoleteFiles()</code> is called at the end of every
compaction and at the end of recovery. It finds the names of all
files in the database. It deletes all log files that are not the
current log file. It deletes all table files that are not referenced
from some level and are not the output of an active compaction.

<p>
<h2>Write buffer</h2>
<p>
<code>Options::write_buffer_size</code> specifies the amount of data
to build up in memory before converting to a sorted on-disk file.
Larger values increase performance, especially during bulk loads.
Up to max_write_buffer_number write buffers may be held in memory
at the same time,
so you may wish to adjust this parameter to control memory usage.
Also, a larger write buffer will result in a longer recovery time
the next time the database is opened.
Related option is
<code>Options::max_write_buffer_number</code>, which is maximum number
of write buffers that are built up in memory. The default is 2, so that
when 1 write buffer is being flushed to storage, new writes can continue
to the other write buffer.
<code>Options::min_write_buffer_number_to_merge</code> is the minimum number
of write buffers that will be merged together before writing to storage.
If set to 1, then all write buffers are fushed to L0 as individual files and
this increases read amplification because a get request has to check in all
of these files. Also, an in-memory merge may result in writing lesser
data to storage if there are duplicate records in each of these
individual write buffers. Default: 1

<p>
Here we give overview of the options that impact behavior of Compactions:
<ul>
<p>
<li><code>Options::compaction_style</code> - RocksDB currently supports two
compaction algorithms - Compaction style and Level style. This option switches
between the two. Can be kCompactionStyleUniversal or kCompactionStyleLevel.
If this is kCompactionStyleUniversal, then you can configure universal style
parameters with <code>Options::compaction_options_universal</code>.
<p>
<li><code>Options::disable_auto_compactions</code> - Disable automatic compactions.
Manual compactions can still be issued on this database.
<p>
<li><code>Options::compaction_filter</code> - Allows an application to modify/delete
a key-value during background compaction. The client must provide
compaction_filter_factory if it requires a new compaction filter to be used
for different compaction processes. Client should specify only one of filter
or factory.
<p>
<li><code>Options::compaction_filter_factory</code> - a factory that provides
compaction filter objects which allow an application to modify/delete a
key-value during background compaction.
</ul>
<p>
Other options impacting performance of compactions and when they get triggered
are: <code>access_hint_on_compaction_start</code>,
<code>level0_file_num_compaction_trigger</code>,
<code>max_mem_compaction_level</code>, <code>target_file_size_base</code>,
<code>target_file_size_multiplier</code>,

implementation. See <code>rocksdb/util/env_posix.h</code> for an example.
<h1>Statistics</h1>
<p>
To be able to efficiently tune your application, it is always helpful if you
have access to usage statistics. You can collect those statistics by setting
<code>Options::table_stats_collectors</code> or
<code>Options::statistics</code>. For more information, refer to
<code>rocksdb/table_stats.h</code> and <code>rocksdb/statistics.h</code>.
These should not add significant overhead to your application and we
recommend exporting them to other monitoring tools.
<h1>Purging WAL files</h1>
<p>
By default, old write-ahead logs are deleted automatically when they fall out
of scope and application doesn't need them anymore. There are options that
enable the user to archive the logs and then delete them lazily, either in
TTL fashion or based on size limit.
The options are <code>Options::WAL_ttl_seconds</code> and
<code>Options::WAL_size_limit_MB</code>. Here is how they can be used:
<ul>
<li>
<p>
If both set to 0, logs will be deleted asap and will never get into the archive.
<li>
<p>
If <code>WAL_ttl_seconds</code> is 0 and WAL_size_limit_MB is not 0, WAL
files will be checked every 10 min and if total size is greater then
<code>WAL_size_limit_MB</code>, they will be deleted starting with the
earliest until size_limit is met. All empty files will be deleted.
<li>
<p>
If <code>WAL_ttl_seconds</code> is not 0 and WAL_size_limit_MB is 0, then
WAL files will be checked every <code>WAL_ttl_seconds / 2</code> and those
that are older than WAL_ttl_seconds will be deleted.
<li>
<p>
If both are not 0, WAL files will be checked every 10 min and both
checks will be performed with ttl being first.
</ul>
You can completely disable WAL file purging by setting
<code>Options::purge_log_after_memtable_flush</code> to false.

<end_of_file>
The file contains internal pointers. Each such pointer is called
a BlockHandle and contains the following information:
offset: varint64
size: varint64
(1) The sequence of key/value pairs in the file are stored in sorted
order and partitioned into a sequence of data blocks. These blocks
come one after another at the beginning of the file. Each data block
is formatted according to the code in block_builder.cc, and then
optionally compressed.
(2) After the data blocks we store a bunch of meta blocks. The
supported meta block types are described below. More meta block types
may be added in the future. Each meta block is again formatted using
block_builder.cc and then optionally compressed.
(3) A "metaindex" block. It contains one entry for every other meta
block where the key is the name of the meta block and the value is a
BlockHandle pointing to that meta block.
(4) An "index" block. This block contains one entry per data block,
where the key is a string >= last key in that data block and before
the first key in the successive data block. The value is the
BlockHandle for the data block.
(6) At the very end of the file is a fixed length footer that contains
the BlockHandle of the metaindex and index blocks as well as a magic number.
metaindex_handle: char[p]; // Block handle for metaindex
index_handle: char[q]; // Block handle for index
padding: char[40-p-q]; // 0 bytes to make fixed length
// (40==2*BlockHandle::kMaxEncodedLength)
magic: fixed64; // == 0xdb4775248b80fb57
"filter" Meta Block
-------------------
If a "FilterPolicy" was specified when the database was opened, a
filter block is stored in each table. The "metaindex" block contains
an entry that maps from "filter.<N>" to the BlockHandle for the filter
block where "<N>" is the string returned by the filter policy's
"Name()" method.
The filter block stores a sequence of filters, where filter i contains
the output of FilterPolicy::CreateFilter() on all keys that are stored
in a block whose file offset falls within the range
[ i*base ... (i+1)*base-1 ]
Currently, "base" is 2KB. So for example, if blocks X and Y start in
the range [ 0KB .. 2KB-1 ], all of the keys in X and Y will be
converted to a filter by calling FilterPolicy::CreateFilter(), and the
resulting filter will be stored as the first filter in the filter
block.
The filter block is formatted as follows:
[filter 0]
[filter 1]
[filter 2]
...
[filter N-1]
[offset of filter 0] : 4 bytes
[offset of filter 1] : 4 bytes
[offset of filter 2] : 4 bytes
...
[offset of filter N-1] : 4 bytes
[offset of beginning of offset array] : 4 bytes
lg(base) : 1 byte
The offset array at the end of the filter block allows efficient
mapping from a data block offset to the corresponding filter.
"stats" Meta Block
------------------
This meta block contains a bunch of stats. The key is the name
of the statistic. The value contains the statistic.
TODO(postrelease): record following stats.
data size
index size
