Hi Warner,

The TRIM command takes a buffer of range structures, and this change 
consolidates multiple range structures into the buffer for a single TRIM 
command, correct? Whereas the old functionality was to populate the buffer with 
a single range structure?

So if we wanted to trim ranges [P..T], [A..E], [K..O], the old functionality 
would be:

    TRIM:[P..T] ; TRIM:[A..E] ; TRIM:[K..O]

The new functionality would be:

    TRIM:[P..T], [A..E], [K..O]

Right?

> +                             /* XXX -- Could collapse adjacent ranges, but 
> we don't for now */
> +                             /* XXX -- Could limit based on total payload 
> size */

And that future enhancement would make it:

    TRIM:[A..E], [K..T]

Is that correct?

Thanks,

Ravi (rpokala@)
