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
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.
