Summary: Right now, if direct I/O is enabled, prefetching the last 512KB cannot be applied, except compaction inputs or readahead is enabled for iterators. This can create a lot of I/O for HDD cases. To solve the problem, the 512KB is prefetched in block based table if direct I/O is enabled. The prefetched buffer is passed in totegher with random access file reader, so that we try to read from the buffer before reading from the file. This can be extended in the future to support flexible user iterator readahead too.

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.
