Don't declare distinct stat map for partitions. It's more useful to see
the stats collated together per-WAL. This may need further change in the
future.
If the memory gets 5x above the partition size threshold, the WAL will start returning write failures to the clients. This will allow them to backoff their write volume.
Also updated the stress script to track failed requests and output messages on failure and when it returns to success.
* Only fire a go routine to flush and compact if it isn't already running
* Have a sleep backoff time that scales up as the percentage of memory used goes up
Start of a lower-level file inspection tool. This currently dumps
summary statistics for the shards, index and WAL that can be used to
understand the shape of the data is in the local shards. This util
operates on the shards itself and not through the server and is intended
more for debugging/troubleshooting.
A write lock was being taken to read the memory size to determine if writes
should be paused. What happens is that writers get blocked indefintely when
trying to acquire a write lock which makes writes pause (or stop) for long periods
of time.
The log was deferring the release of the read lock on the WAL. This had
the affect that a read-lock was held until after the partition finished writing
(which maintains it's own locks). The read lock is only needed around the call
to pointsToPartions so it can get a consistent copy of the points to write. After
that calls returns, a lock is not needed so free it immediatedly.
addToCache is called in a goroutine and can panic if the server is closed while opening. If
part of the open func errors, it returns an error and immediately calls close. close sets
p.cache to nil which causes the goroutine trying to initialized the cache to panic as well. The
goroutine should run under a write lock to avoid this race/panic.
If LoadMetadataIndex() tries to log an error, it causes a panic because the
logger is not set until Open() is called, which is after LoadMetaDataIndex() returns.
Instead, just set the logger up when the WAL is created.
This commit changes the default block size from 64KB to 4KB for
bz1. This was lowered because small blocks were being uncompressed,
merged, recompressed, and inserted for a large portion of updates.
This became slower and slower over time until it reached the 64KB
threshold. We moved to the 4KB threshold in order to lower the
impact of this recompression.
The buffer allocation in bz1 was unused and I'm fairly certain that it
was harmful to performance if used. For queries that run through a bz1
block, needing to hold on to a 64kb block is expensive. Better to churn
on the allocator and have the blocks be released when they are unused
than to have 64kb hanging around for each series regardless of size.
Thanks to @jwilder for brainstorming this issue with me.
By using preallocated buffers for marshaling WAL entries, we can
reduce the amount of memory we allocate.
On a run of `influx_stress -series 10000 -points 1000` this cuts
total allocations from 18684.15MB to 15200.73MB
* Update the store to remove the WAL directories associated with a shard or database when they are deleted.
* Fix the Store so that it creates separate WAL directories for databases and retention policies.
This commit changes the bz1 append to check for a small
ending block first. If the block is below the threshold
for block size then it is rewritten with the new data
points instead of having a new block written.
If a flush is happening and you bring up a cursor for a series, if that series didn't have any data in the cache (after the flush started) then it would return no data. What it should have done instead is return the data that is in the flush cache, which is held in separate area of memory until it is committed to the index.
* All metadata for each shard is now stored in a single key with compressed value
* Creation of new metadata no longer requires a syncrhnous write to Bolt. It is passed to the WAL and written to Bolt periodically outside the write path
* Added DeleteSeries to WAL and updated bz1 to remove series there when DeleteSeries or DropMeasurement are called
This commit fixes the b1 cursor so that reads from either the cache
or bolt buffer will check against the previously read key to ensure
that two of the same keys are not returned.
Fixes#3571.
This commit fixes issues found from using a more complex `testing/quick`
implementation of the `WriteIndex()` test. The newer test inserts
multiple sets of random data that's confined to a smaller random space
so there's more chance of overlapping data.
The fixes were primarily around inserting old data or inserting the same
timestamp multiple times for a single write. The block splitting was not
working correctly before and the sorting and deduping was not handled
correctly.
