This commit adds a check to prevent circular dependencies in branch nodes. If a circular dependency occurs
then a panic will be called and the commit will be prevented. This only works for a single branch level
and will not recursively search the tree.
This commit removes the DB.Check() function and instead makes the user decide
whether a transaction should be writable or read-only. Tx.Check() is not safe
to use concurrently on a read-only transaction, however, it significantly
improves the performance of it.
This commit fixes the freelist so that it frees from the beginning of the data file
instead of the end. It also adds a fast path for pages which can be allocated from
the first free pages and it includes read transaction stats.
This commit adds the ability to adjust the fill percentage for splitting nodes. This
works by setting a threshold that is a percentage of a total page size. When that
threshold is crossed during a split then a new node is created.
This is primarily beneficial for append-only workloads.
Fixes#163.
This commit adds support for writing small buckets directly inline to their value in
their parent's leaf node. Previously, subbuckets would simply have a bucket header
stored in their parent bucket which pointed to the root page. This required that
every bucket use at least a single page. This has a high overhead for buckets with
only one or two small items.
Inline buckets checks subbuckets to see if they only have a small amount of data
(about 1kb) and no subbuckets. If these conditions are met then the bucket's root
node is written to a fake page which is simply a pointer to the end of the bucket's
header.
Fixes#124.
This commit consolidates some of the smaller files into some of the larger files.
The smaller files cluttered the file tree and made it harder to see the logical
groupings of structs.
