sdong b9f77ba12b When slowdown is triggered, reduce the write rate
Summary: It's usually hard for users to set a value of options.delayed_write_rate. With this diff, after slowdown condition triggers, we greedily reduce write rate if estimated pending compaction bytes increase. If estimated compaction pending bytes drop, we increase the write rate.

Test Plan:
Add a unit test
Test with db_bench setting:
TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm/ ./db_bench --benchmarks=fillrandom -num=10000000 --soft_pending_compaction_bytes_limit=1000000000 --hard_pending_compaction_bytes_limit=3000000000 --delayed_write_rate=100000000

and make sure without the commit, write stop will happen, but with the commit, it will not happen.

sdong 7842920be5 Slow down writes by bytes written
Summary:
We slow down data into the database to the rate of options.delayed_write_rate (a new option) with this patch.

The thread synchronization approach I take is to still synchronize write controller by DB mutex and GetDelay() is inside DB mutex. Try to minimize the frequency of getting time in GetDelay(). I verified it through db_bench and it seems to work

hard_rate_limit is deprecated.

options.delayed_write_rate is still not dynamically changeable. Need to work on it as a follow-up.

Test Plan: Add new unit tests in db_test

Igor Canadi a2bb7c3c33 Push- instead of pull-model for managing Write stalls
Summary:
Introducing WriteController, which is a source of truth about per-DB write delays. Let's define an DB epoch as a period where there are no flushes and compactions (i.e. new epoch is started when flush or compaction finishes). Each epoch can either:
* proceed with all writes without delay
* delay all writes by fixed time
* stop all writes

The three modes are recomputed at each epoch change (flush, compaction), rather than on every write (which is currently the case).

When we have a lot of column families, our current pull behavior adds a big overhead, since we need to loop over every column family for every write. With new push model, overhead on Write code-path is minimal.

This is just the start. Next step is to also take care of stalls introduced by slow memtable flushes. The final goal is to eliminate function MakeRoomForWrite(), which currently needs to be called for every column family by every write.

Test Plan: make check for now. I'll add some unit tests later. Also, perf test.
