sdong d72b31774e Slowdown when writing to the last write buffer
Summary: Now if inserting to mem table is much faster than writing to files, there is no mechanism users can rely on to avoid stopping for reaching options.max_write_buffer_number. With the commit, if there are more than four maximum write buffers configured, we slow down to the rate of options.delayed_write_rate while we reach the last one.

Test Plan:
1. Add a new unit test.
2. Run db_bench with

./db_bench --benchmarks=fillrandom --num=10000000 --max_background_flushes=6 --batch_size=32 -max_write_buffer_number=4 --delayed_write_rate=500000 --statistics

based on hard drive and see stopping is avoided with the commit.

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage

Build Status

RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com) and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)

This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast key value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives. It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF) and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions, making it specially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.

Start with example usage here: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/tree/master/examples

See the github wiki for more explanation.

The public interface is in include/. Callers should not include or rely on the details of any other header files in this package. Those internal APIs may be changed without warning.

Design discussions are conducted in https://www.facebook.com/groups/rocksdb.dev/
