Summary:
When scaling to higher number of column families, the worst bottleneck was MaybeScheduleFlushOrCompaction(), which did a for loop over all column families while holding a mutex. This patch addresses the issue.
The approach is similar to our earlier efforts: instead of a pull-model, where we do something for every column family, we can do a push-based model -- when we detect that column family is ready to be flushed/compacted, we add it to the flush_queue_/compaction_queue_. That way we don't need to loop over every column family in MaybeScheduleFlushOrCompaction.
Here are the performance results:
Command:
./db_bench --write_buffer_size=268435456 --db_write_buffer_size=268435456 --db=/fast-rocksdb-tmp/rocks_lots_of_cf --use_existing_db=0 --open_files=55000 --statistics=1 --histogram=1 --disable_data_sync=1 --max_write_buffer_number=2 --sync=0 --benchmarks=fillrandom --threads=16 --num_column_families=5000 --disable_wal=1 --max_background_flushes=16 --max_background_compactions=16 --level0_file_num_compaction_trigger=2 --level0_slowdown_writes_trigger=2 --level0_stop_writes_trigger=3 --hard_rate_limit=1 --num=33333333 --writes=33333333
Before the patch:
fillrandom : 26.950 micros/op 37105 ops/sec; 4.1 MB/s
After the patch:
fillrandom : 17.404 micros/op 57456 ops/sec; 6.4 MB/s
Next bottleneck is VersionSet::AddLiveFiles, which is painfully slow when we have a lot of files. This is coming in the next patch, but when I removed that code, here's what I got:
fillrandom : 7.590 micros/op 131758 ops/sec; 14.6 MB/s

call-back functions which will be called when specific
events of a RocksDB instance happens.
* To register EventListener, simply insert an EventListener to ColumnFamilyOptions::listeners
= CompactFiles =
* CompactFiles API inputs a set of file numbers and an output level, and RocksDB
will try to compact those files into the specified level.
= Example =

Long awaited CompactionJob class! Move most compaction-related things from DBImpl to CompactionJob, making CompactionJob easier to test and understand.
Currently this is just replicating exactly the same functionality with as little as change as possible. As future work, we should:
1. Add CompactionJob tests (I think I'll do that tomorrow)
2. Reduce CompactionJob's state that it inherits from DBImpl
3. Figure out how to do yielding to flush better. Currently I implemented a callback as we agreed yesterday, but I don't think it's a good long term solution.
This reduces db_impl.cc from 5000+ LOC to 3400!

Summary:
When memtable is full it calls the registered callback. That callback then registers column family as needing the flush. Every write checks if there are some column families that need to be flushed. This completely eliminates the need for MakeRoomForWrite() function and simplifies our Write code-path.
There is some complexity with the concurrency when the column family is dropped. I made it a bit less complex by dropping the column family from the write thread in https://reviews.facebook.net/D22965. Let me know if you want to discuss this.

Summary:
Introducing WriteController, which is a source of truth about per-DB write delays. Let's define an DB epoch as a period where there are no flushes and compactions (i.e. new epoch is started when flush or compaction finishes). Each epoch can either:
* proceed with all writes without delay
* delay all writes by fixed time
* stop all writes
The three modes are recomputed at each epoch change (flush, compaction), rather than on every write (which is currently the case).
When we have a lot of column families, our current pull behavior adds a big overhead, since we need to loop over every column family for every write. With new push model, overhead on Write code-path is minimal.
This is just the start. Next step is to also take care of stalls introduced by slow memtable flushes. The final goal is to eliminate function MakeRoomForWrite(), which currently needs to be called for every column family by every write.
Test Plan: make check for now. I'll add some unit tests later. Also, perf test.
