Ivan Kelly commented on BOOKKEEPER-432:
---------------------------------------
Sorry, I meant checkpointing. When the new checkpointing went into trunk, it
changes a bit from what you guys have been using. I remember you mentioning
before that the skiplist stuff didn't work out of the box with it, I wasn't
wondering if this had been fixed.
> Improve performance of entry log range read per ledger entries

> We observed random I/O reads when some subscribers fall behind (on some
> topics), as delivery needs to scan the entry logs (thru ledger index), which
> are interleaved with ledger entries across all ledgers being served.
> Essentially, the ledger index is a non-clustered index. It is not effective
> when a large number of ledger entries need to be served, which tend to be
> scattered around due to interleaving.
> Some possible improvements:
> 1. Change the ledger entries buffer to use a SkipList (or other suitable),
> sorted on (ledger, entry sequence). When the buffer is flushed, the entry log
> is written out in the already-sorted order.
> The "active" ledger index can point to the entries buffer (SkipList), and
> fixed up with entry-log position once latter is persisted.
> Or, the ledger index can be just rebuilt on demand. The entry log file tail
> can have index attached (light-weight b-tree, similar with big-table). We
> need to track per ledger which log files contribute entries to it, so that
> in-memory index can be rebuilt from the tails of corresponding log files.
> 2. Use affinity concept to make ensembles of ledgers (belonging to same
> topic) as identical as possible. This will help above 1. be more effective.
