Summary:
Instead of locking and saving a DB state, we can cache a DB state and update it only when it changes. This change reduces lock contention and speeds up read operations on the DB.
Performance improvements are substantial, although there is some cost in no-read workloads. I ran the regression tests on my devserver and here are the numbers:
overwrite 56345 -> 63001
fillseq 193730 -> 185296
readrandom 771301 -> 1219803 (58% improvement!)
readrandom_smallblockcache 677609 -> 862850
readrandom_memtable_sst 710440 -> 1109223
readrandom_fillunique_random 221589 -> 247869

Summary:
In this diff I present you BackupableDB v1. You can easily use it to backup your DB and it will do incremental snapshots for you.
Let's first describe how you would use BackupableDB. It's inheriting StackableDB interface so you can easily construct it with your DB object -- it will add a method RollTheSnapshot() to the DB object. When you call RollTheSnapshot(), current snapshot of the DB will be stored in the backup dir. To restore, you can just call RestoreDBFromBackup() on a BackupableDB (which is a static method) and it will restore all files from the backup dir. In the next version, it will even support automatic backuping every X minutes.
There are multiple things you can configure:
1. backup_env and db_env can be different, which is awesome because then you can easily backup to HDFS or wherever you feel like.
2. sync - if true, it *guarantees* backup consistency on machine reboot
3. number of snapshots to keep - this will keep last N snapshots around if you want, for some reason, be able to restore from an earlier snapshot. All the backuping is done in incremental fashion - if we already have 00010.sst, we will not copy it again. *IMPORTANT* -- This is based on assumption that 00010.sst never changes - two files named 00010.sst from the same DB will always be exactly the same. Is this true? I always copy manifest, current and log files.
4. You can decide if you want to flush the memtables before you backup, or you're fine with backing up the log files -- either way, you get a complete and consistent view of the database at a time of backup.
5. More things you can find in BackupableDBOptions
Here is the directory structure I use:
backup_dir/CURRENT_SNAPSHOT - just 4 bytes holding the latest snapshot
0, 1, 2, ... - files containing serialized version of each snapshot - containing a list of files
files/*.sst - sst files shared between snapshots - if one snapshot references 00010.sst and another one needs to backup it from the DB, it will just reference the same file
files/ 0/, 1/, 2/, ... - snapshot directories containing private snapshot files - current, manifest and log files
All the files are ref counted and deleted immediatelly when they get out of scope.
Some other stuff in this diff:
1. Added GetEnv() method to the DB. Discussed with @haobo and we agreed that it seems right thing to do.
2. Fixed StackableDB interface. The way it was set up before, I was not able to implement BackupableDB.
Test Plan:
I have a unittest, but please don't look at this yet. I just hacked it up to help me with debugging. I will write a lot of good tests and update the diff.

Summary:
Here's one solution we discussed on speeding up FindObsoleteFiles. Keep a set of all files in DBImpl and update the set every time we create a file. I probably missed few other spots where we create a file.
It might speed things up a bit, but makes code uglier. I don't really like it.
Much better approach would be to abstract all file handling to a separate class. Think of it as layer between DBImpl and Env. Having a separate class deal with file namings and deletion would benefit both code cleanliness (especially with huge DBImpl) and speed things up. It will take a huge effort to do this, though.
Let's discuss offline today.

block cache or both. Lookups first look for a block in the
uncompressed cache, if it is not found only then it is looked up
in the compressed cache. If it is found in the compressed cache,
then it is uncompressed and inserted into the uncompressed cache.
It is possible that the same block resides in the compressed cache
as well as the uncompressed cache at the same time. Both caches
have their own individual LRU policy.

1) Options.rate_limit is renamed to Options.hard_rate_limit.
2) Options.rate_limit_delay_milliseconds is renamed to Options.rate_limit_delay_max_milliseconds.
3) Options.soft_rate_limit is added.
4) If the maximum compaction score is > hard_rate_limit and rate_limit_delay_max_milliseconds == 0, then writes are delayed by 1 ms at a time until the max compaction score falls below hard_rate_limit.
5) If the max compaction score is > soft_rate_limit but <= hard_rate_limit, then writes are delayed by 0-1 ms depending on how close we are to hard_rate_limit.
6) Users can disable 4 by setting hard_rate_limit = 0. They can add a limit to the maximum amount of time waited by setting rate_limit_delay_max_milliseconds > 0. Thus, the old behavior can be preserved by setting soft_rate_limit = 0, which is the default.

Currently, when a certain number of level0 files (level0_slowdown_writes_trigger) are present, RocksDB will slow down each write by 1ms. There is a second limit of level0 files at which RocksDB will stop writes altogether (level0_stop_writes_trigger).
This patch enables the user to supply a third parameter specifying the number of files at which Rocks will start slowing down writes (level0_start_slowdown_writes). When this number is reached, Rocks will slow down writes as a quadratic function of level0_slowdown_writes_trigger - num_level0_files.
