Summary: I was investigating performance issues in the SstFileWriter and found all of the following: - The SstFileWriter::Add() function created a local InternalKey every time it was called generating a allocation and free each time. Changed to have an InternalKey member variable that can be reset with the new InternalKey::Set() function. - In SstFileWriter::Add() the smallest_key and largest_key values were assigned the result of a ToString() call, but it is simpler to just assign them directly from the user's key. - The Slice class had no move constructor so each time one was returned from a function a new one had to be allocated, the old data copied to the new, and the old one was freed. I added the move constructor which also required a copy constructor and assignment operator. - The BlockBuilder::CurrentSizeEstimate() function calculates the current estimate size, but was being called 2 or 3 times for each key added. I changed the class to maintain a running estimate (equal to the original calculation) so that the function can return an already calculated value. - The code in BlockBuilder::Add() that calculated the shared bytes between the last key and the new key duplicated what Slice::difference_offset does, so I replaced it with the standard function. - BlockBuilder::Add() had code to copy just the changed portion into the last key value (and asserted that it now matched the new key). It is more efficient just to copy the whole new key over. - Moved this same code up into the 'if (use_delta_encoding_)' since the last key value is only needed when delta encoding is on. - FlushBlockBySizePolicy::BlockAlmostFull calculated a standard deviation value each time it was called, but this information would only change if block_size of block_size_deviation changed, so I created a member variable to hold the value to avoid the calculation each time. - Each PutVarint??() function has a buffer and calls std::string::append(). Two or three calls in a row could share a buffer and a single call to std::string::append(). Some of these will be helpful outside of the SstFileWriter. I'm not 100% the addition of the move constructor is appropriate as I wonder why this wasn't done before - maybe because of compiler compatibility? I tried it on gcc 4.8 and 4.9. Test Plan: The changes should not affect the results so the existing tests should all still work and no new tests were added. The value of the changes was seen by manually testing the SstFileWriter class through MyRocks and adding timing code to identify problem areas.

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.
