------------------------------------------------------------------
Hmm.. why it was removed as a part of this cleanup? As for me
_populate_io_cache_on_flush_ is irrelevant with caching mechanism because it
uses internal OS capabilities for storing data in-memory. If it was decided to
remove it then should be created a separate ticket for that since it is
isolated feature.
Also I think it is quite strange to remove this feature since it can be very
useful if dataset fits memory. We used this option to have the whole dataset in
memory and it gave us high performance with low latency.
What do you think about reverting the changes and starting a discussion
regarding this option?
PS:
I guess this option is not very popular because it does not have proper
documentation. Maybe it would be better to write an article (+ some info in
official documentation) with detailed explanation why and when it can be used
than just remove it. If such approach works I can help with it.
