Summary: With many millions of keys, the old Bloom filter implementation for the block-based table (format_version <= 4) would have excessive FP rate due to the limitations of feeding the Bloom filter with a 32-bit hash. This change computes an estimated inflated FP rate due to this effect and warns in the log whenever an SST filter is constructed (almost certainly a "full" not "partitioned" filter) that exceeds 1.5x FP rate due to this effect. The detailed condition is only checked if 3 million keys or more have been added to a filter, as this should be a lower bound for common bits/key settings (< 20). Recommended remedies include smaller SST file size, using format_version >= 5 (for new Bloom filter), or using partitioned filters. This does not change behavior other than generating warnings for some constructed filters using the old implementation. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/6317 Test Plan: Example with warning, 15M keys @ 15 bits / key: (working_mem_size_mb is just to stop after building one filter if it's large) $ ./filter_bench -quick -impl=0 -working_mem_size_mb=1 -bits_per_key=15 -average_keys_per_filter=15000000 2>&1 | grep 'FP rate' [WARN] [/block_based/filter_policy.cc:292] Using legacy SST/BBT Bloom filter with excessive key count (15.0M @ 15bpk), causing estimated 1.8x higher filter FP rate. Consider using new Bloom with format_version>=5, smaller SST file size, or partitioned filters.

There's math on this in my dissertation, but I don't think it's worth the effort just for these extreme cases (> 100 million keys and low-ish bits/key).

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 especially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.
