Summary: Now if we have iterate_upper_bound set, we continue read until get a key >= upper_bound. For a lot of cases that neighboring data blocks have a user key gap between them, our index key will be a user key in the middle to get a shorter size. For example, if we have blocks: [a b c d][f g h] Then the index key for the first block will be 'e'. then if upper bound is any key between 'd' and 'e', for example, d1, d2, ..., d99999999999, we don't have to read the second block and also know that we have done our iteration by reaching the last key that smaller the upper bound already. This diff can reduce RA in most cases.

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.
