Summary:
The leveldb API is enhanced to support different compression algorithms at
different levels.
This adds the option min_level_to_compress to db_bench that specifies
the minimum level for which compression should be done when
compression is enabled. This can be used to disable compression for levels
0 and 1 which are likely to suffer from stalls because of the CPU load
for memtable flushes and (L0,L1) compaction. Level 0 is special as it
gets frequent memtable flushes. Level 1 is special as it frequently
gets all:all file compactions between it and level 0. But all other levels
could be the same. For any level N where N > 1, the rate of sequential
IO for that level should be the same. The last level is the
exception because it might not be full and because files from it are
not read to compact with the next larger level.
The same amount of time will be spent doing compaction at any
level N excluding N=0, 1 or the last level. By this standard all
of those levels should use the same compression. The difference is that
the loss (using more disk space) from a faster compression algorithm
is less significant for N=2 than for N=3. So we might be willing to
trade disk space for faster write rates with no compression
for L0 and L1, snappy for L2, zlib for L3. Using a faster compression
algorithm for the mid levels also allows us to reclaim some cpu
without trading off much loss in disk space overhead.
Also note that little is to be gained by compressing levels 0 and 1. For
a 4-level tree they account for 10% of the data. For a 5-level tree they
account for 1% of the data.
With compression enabled:
* memtable flush rate is ~18MB/second
* (L0,L1) compaction rate is ~30MB/second
With compression enabled but min_level_to_compress=2
* memtable flush rate is ~320MB/second
* (L0,L1) compaction rate is ~560MB/second
This practicaly takes the same code from https://reviews.facebook.net/D6225
but makes the leveldb api more general purpose with a few additional
lines of code.

Summary:
A previous commit 4c107587ed introduced
the idea that some version updates might not delete obsolete files.
This means that if a unit test blindly counts the number of files
in the db directory it might not represent the true state of the database.
Use GetLiveFiles() insteads to count the number of live files in the database.

Summary:
Adds a method that returns the score for the next level that most
needs compaction. That method is then used by db_bench to rate limit threads.
Threads are put to sleep at the end of each stats interval until the score
is less than the limit. The limit is set via the --rate_limit=$double option.
The specified value must be > 1.0. Also adds the option --stats_per_interval
to enable additional metrics reported every stats interval.

Summary:
This adds more statistics to be reported by GetProperty("leveldb.stats").
The new stats include time spent waiting on stalls in MakeRoomForWrite.
This also includes the total amplification rate where that is:
(#bytes of sequential IO during compaction) / (#bytes from Put)
This also includes a lot more data for the per-level compaction report.
* Rn(MB) - MB read from level N during compaction between levels N and N+1
* Rnp1(MB) - MB read from level N+1 during compaction between levels N and N+1
* Wnew(MB) - new data written to the level during compaction
* Amplify - ( Write(MB) + Rnp1(MB) ) / Rn(MB)
* Rn - files read from level N during compaction between levels N and N+1
* Rnp1 - files read from level N+1 during compaction between levels N and N+1
* Wnp1 - files written to level N+1 during compaction between levels N and N+1
* NewW - new files written to level N+1 during compaction
* Count - number of compactions done for this level
This is the new output from DB::GetProperty("leveldb.stats"). The old output stopped at Write(MB)

The compaction process deletes a large number of files. This takes

Test Plan: make check
Differential Revision: https://reviews.facebook.net/D6123
Summary:
The parameter delete_obsolete_files_period_micros controls the
periodicity of deleting obsolete files. db_bench was reading in
this parameter intoa local variable called 'l' but was incorrectly
using another local variable called 'n' while setting it in the
db.options data structure.
This patch also logs the value of delete_obsolete_files_period_micros
in the LOG file at db startup time.
I am hoping that this will improve the overall write throughput drastically.

Summary:
The method DeleteObsolete files is a very costly methind, especially
when the number of files in a system is large. It makes a list of
all live-files and then scans the directory to compute the diff.
By default, this method is executed after every compaction run.
This patch makes it such that DeleteObsolete files is never
invoked twice within a configured period.

Summary:
We have seen that reading data via the pread call (instead of
mmap) is much faster on Linux 2.6.x kernels. This patch makes
an equivalent option to switch off mmaps for the write path
as well.
db_bench --mmap_write=0 will use write() instead of mmap() to
write data to a file.
This change is backward compatible, the default
option is to continue using mmap for writing to a file.
Test Plan: "make check all"
Differential Revision: https://reviews.facebook.net/D5781
Summary:
The option is zero by default and in that case reporting is unchanged.
By unchanged, the interval at which stats are reported is scaled after each
report and newline is not issued after each report so one line is rewritten.
When non-zero it specifies the constant interval (in operations) at which
statistics are reported and the stats include the rate per interval. This
makes it easier to determine whether QPS changes over the duration of the test.

Summary:
In the current code, a Get() call can trigger compaction if it has to look at more than one file. This causes unnecessary compaction because looking at more than one file is a penalty only if the file is not yet in the cache. Also, th current code counts these files before the bloom filter check is applied.
This patch counts a 'seek' only if the file fails the bloom filter
check and has to read in data block(s) from the storage.
This patch also counts a 'seek' if a file is not present in the file-cache, because opening a file means that its index blocks need to be read into cache.

Summary:
The GetLiveFiles() api lists the set of sst files and the current
MANIFEST file. But the database continues to append new data to the
MANIFEST file even when the application is backing it up to the
backup location. This means that the database-version that is
stored in the MANIFEST FILE in the backup location
does not correspond to the sst files returned by GetLiveFiles.
This API adds a new parameter to GetLiveFiles. This new parmeter
returns the current size of the MANIFEST file.

It is better to limit the sharding of the block cache to an
