Summary:
This diff adds three sets of APIs to RocksDB.
= GetColumnFamilyMetaData =
* This APIs allow users to obtain the current state of a RocksDB instance on one column family.
* See GetColumnFamilyMetaData in include/rocksdb/db.h
= EventListener =
* A virtual class that allows users to implement a set of
call-back functions which will be called when specific
events of a RocksDB instance happens.
* To register EventListener, simply insert an EventListener to ColumnFamilyOptions::listeners
= CompactFiles =
* CompactFiles API inputs a set of file numbers and an output level, and RocksDB
will try to compact those files into the specified level.
= Example =
* Example code can be found in example/compact_files_example.cc, which implements
a simple external compactor using EventListener, GetColumnFamilyMetaData, and
CompactFiles API.
Test Plan:
listener_test
compactor_test
example/compact_files_example
export ROCKSDB_TESTS=CompactFiles
db_test
export ROCKSDB_TESTS=MetaData

Summary:
This diff is addressing multiple things with a single goal -- to make RocksDB easier to use:
* Add some functions to Options that make RocksDB easier to tune.
* Add example code for both simple RocksDB and RocksDB with Column Families.
* Rewrite our README.md
Regarding Options, I took a stab at something we talked about for a long time:
* https://www.facebook.com/groups/rocksdb.dev/permalink/563169950448190/
I added functions:
* IncreaseParallelism() -- easy, increases the thread pool and max_background_compactions
* OptimizeLevelStyleCompaction(memtable_memory_budget) -- the easiest way to optimize rocksdb for less stalls with level style compaction. This is very likely not ideal configuration. Feel free to suggest improvements. I used some of Mark's suggestions from here: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/54
* OptimizeUniversalStyleCompaction(memtable_memory_budget) -- optimize for universal compaction.
Test Plan: compiled rocksdb. ran examples.
