Dmitri Smirnov f4b72d7056 Provide a way to override windows memory allocator with jemalloc for ZSTD
Summary:
Windows does not have LD_PRELOAD mechanism to override all memory allocation functions and ZSTD makes use of C-tuntime calloc. During flushes and compactions default system allocator fragments and the system slows down considerably.

For builds with jemalloc we employ an advanced ZSTD context creation API that re-directs memory allocation to jemalloc. To reduce the cost of context creation on each block we cache ZSTD context within the block based table builder while a new SST file is being built, this will help all platform builds including those w/o jemalloc. This avoids system allocator fragmentation and improves the performance.

The change does not address random reads and currently on Windows reads with ZSTD regress as compared with SNAPPY compression.

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

Linux/Mac Build Status Windows Build status PPC64le 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/
