If an erasure set had a drive replacement recently, we don't
need to attempt healing on another drive with in the same erasure
set - this would ensure we do not double heal the same content
and also prioritizes usage for such an erasure set to be calculated
sooner.
This ensures that all the prometheus monitoring and usage
trackers to avoid alerts configured, although we cannot
support v1 to v2 here - we can v2 to v3.
By monitoring PUT/DELETE and heal operations it is possible
to track changed paths and keep a bloom filter for this data.
This can help prioritize paths to scan. The bloom filter can identify
paths that have not changed, and the few collisions will only result
in a marginal extra workload. This can be implemented on either a
bucket+(1 prefix level) with reasonable performance.
The bloom filter is set to have a false positive rate at 1% at 1M
entries. A bloom table of this size is about ~2500 bytes when serialized.
To not force a full scan of all paths that have changed cycle bloom
filters would need to be kept, so we guarantee that dirty paths have
been scanned within cycle runs. Until cycle bloom filters have been
collected all paths are considered dirty.
