Modern-filesystems and drive-controllers interact with DB ACID properties or lack there-of. Better have a Journalling file-system. With a single key, with locality of reference AND of update, some sort of b-tree file-of-records structure might be adequate. I've no clue which one is optimized for USUALLY appending high values. (Your non-random write order makes me think the standard B-tree would rebalance far too often when most inserts are actually appends .) -- Bill Ricker [email protected] https://www.linkedin.com/in/n1vux _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
