Summary: In one of our recent meetings, we discussed deprecating features that are not being actively used. One of those features, at least within Facebook, is timeout_hint. The feature is really nicely implemented, but if nobody needs it, we should remove it from our code-base (until we get a valid use-case). Some arguments: * Less code == better icache hit rate, smaller builds, simpler code * The motivation for adding timeout_hint_us was to work-around RocksDB's stall issue. However, we're currently addressing the stall issue itself (see @sdong's recent work on stall write_rate), so we should never see sharp lock-ups in the future. * Nobody is using the feature within Facebook's code-base. Googling for `timeout_hint_us` also doesn't yield any users. Test Plan: make check Reviewers: anthony, kradhakrishnan, sdong, yhchiang Reviewed By: yhchiang Subscribers: sdong, dhruba, leveldb Differential Revision: https://reviews.facebook.net/D41937 |

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage
RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com) and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)
This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast key value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives. It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF) and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions, making it specially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.

The public interface is in include/. Callers should not include or
