One part of the improvement comes from replacing zlib's CRC32 with the one
from libdeflate, which is optimized for modern architecture and utilizes the
PCLMUL instruction.
perf_checksum test was introduced to measure performance of various
checksumming operations.

The new CRC32 implementation (deflate_crc32) doesn't provide a fast
checksum_combine() yet, it delegates to zlib so it's as slow as the latter.
Because for CRC32 checksum_combine() is several orders of magnitude slower
than checksum(), we avoid calling checksum_combine() completely for this
checksummer. We still do it for adler32, which has combine() which is faster
than checksum().
SStable write performance was evaluated by running:
perf_fast_forward --populate --data-directory /tmp/perf-mc \
--rows=10000000 -c1 -m4G --datasets small-part
Below is a summary of the average frag/s for a memtable flush. Each result is
an average of about 20 flushes with stddev of about 4k.
Before:
[1] MC,lz4: 330'903
[2] LA,lz4: 450'157
[3] MC,checksum: 419'716
[4] LA,checksum: 459'559
After:
[1'] MC,lz4: 446'917 ([1] + 35%)
[2'] LA,lz4: 456'046 ([2] + 1.3%)
[3'] MC,checksum: 462'894 ([3] + 10%)
[4'] LA,checksum: 467'508 ([4] + 1.7%)
After this series, the performance of the MC format writer is similar to that
of the LA format before the series.
There seems to be a small but consistent improvement for LA too. I'm not sure
why.

Scylla
Quick-start
$ git submodule update --init --recursive
$ sudo ./install-dependencies.sh
$ ./configure.py --mode=release
$ ninja-build -j4 # Assuming 4 system threads.
$ ./build/release/scylla
$ # Rejoice!
Please see HACKING.md for detailed information on building and developing Scylla.
Running Scylla
- Run Scylla
./build/release/scylla
- run Scylla with one CPU and ./tmp as data directory
./build/release/scylla --datadir tmp --commitlog-directory tmp --smp 1
- For more run options:
./build/release/scylla --help
Building Fedora RPM
As a pre-requisite, you need to install Mock on your machine:
# Install mock:
sudo yum install mock
# Add user to the "mock" group:
usermod -a -G mock $USER && newgrp mock
Then, to build an RPM, run:
./dist/redhat/build_rpm.sh
The built RPM is stored in /var/lib/mock/<configuration>/result directory.
For example, on Fedora 21 mock reports the following:
INFO: Done(scylla-server-0.00-1.fc21.src.rpm) Config(default) 20 minutes 7 seconds
INFO: Results and/or logs in: /var/lib/mock/fedora-21-x86_64/result
Building Fedora-based Docker image
Build a Docker image with:
cd dist/docker
docker build -t <image-name> .
Run the image with:
docker run -p $(hostname -i):9042:9042 -i -t <image name>
