Summary: With WritePrepared transaction, flush/compaction can contain uncommitted keys, and those keys can get committed during compaction. If a snapshot is taken before the key is committed, it should not see the key. On the other hand, compaction grab the list of snapshots at its beginning, and only consider those snapshots to dedup keys. Consider the case: ``` seq = 1: put "foo" = "bar" seq = 2: transaction T: delete "foo", prepare seq = 3: compaction start seq = 4: take snapshot S seq = 5: transaction T: commit. ... seq = N: compaction iterator reached key "foo". ``` When compaction start, the list of snapshot is empty. Compaction doesn't take snapshot S into account. When it reached "foo", transaction T is committed. Compaction may think the value "foo=bar" is not visible by any snapshot (which is wrong), and compact the value out. The fix is to explicitly take a snapshot before compaction grabbing the list of snapshots. Compaction will then has to keep keys visible to this snapshot.

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.
