lib.rs

//! Rudb's single-file columnar snapshot format.
//!
//! A committed directory names independently readable column pages. The first version handles
//! scalar columns and one table; the file header already has two generation slots so an unfinished
//! replacement directory cannot hide the last complete one.
//!
//! # Parts and stripes
//!
//! A part is one appended chunk, which is a thousand rows, and it is the unit a scan decodes and
//! hands to the pipeline. A stripe is sixty four parts, and it is the unit the directory describes
//! and the unit the file is laid out in: one page per column per stripe, holding that column's
//! sixty four part payloads end to end.
//!
//! The two are separate because they are sized by different pressures. A part wants to be small
//! because it is a vector and vectors live in cache. A stripe wants to be large because everything
//! the directory holds is per stripe and the directory is one buffer that has to be read and
//! decoded before a single row can be answered. A hundred million rows of the hundred and five
//! column ClickBench table is ninety seven thousand parts, and a directory with a page entry and a
//! pair of bounds per part per column is several hundred megabytes, which is what made that load
//! fail before this split existed. Sixty four parts to a stripe divides that by sixty four.
//!
//! Where the parts of a page start is not in the directory either, for the same reason. Each
//! stripe writes one index page holding a length and a checksum per part per column, and a reader
//! preads the sixty four entries belonging to the column it wants. A scan reads the whole column
//! page once and slices it; a sparse row fetch reads the index entries and then only the part it
//! needs.
