A Memory-efficient Store for SILT: Part III

Learn how to design a memory-efficient key-value store.

Bulk merge of intermediary stores with memory-efficient store

There needs to be a configurable number of intermediary stores accumulated. Once we have the required number then we can bulk merge the intermediary stores and the current instance of the memory-efficient store.

The intermediary store maintains values in hash order and maintains sequential read access. Merging these with our sorted memory-efficient store is efficient since all values are sorted. The merge process occurs in two steps listed below: ...
