For example, in > {{RocksDBWindowStore}} we store the timestamp as part of the key, and relying > on RocksDB's default lexicographic byte array comparator, and hence negative > long value stored in RocksDB will cause the range search ordering to be > messed up. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
