using Lstat() is causing tiny memory allocations,
that are usually wasted and never used, instead
we can simply uses Access() call that does 0
memory allocations.
Instead of using O_SYNC, we are better off using O_DSYNC
instead since we are only ever interested in data to be
persisted to disk not the associated filesystem metadata.
For reads we ask customers to turn off noatime, but instead
we can proactively use O_NOATIME flag to avoid atime updates
upon reads.
currently crawler waits for an entire readdir call to
return until it processes usage, lifecycle, replication
and healing - instead we should pass the applicator all
the way down to avoid building any special stack for all
the contents in a single directory.
This allows for
- no need to remember the entire list of entries per directory
before applying the required functions
- no need to wait for entire readdir() call to finish before
applying the required functions
- Implement a new xl.json 2.0.0 format to support,
this moves the entire marshaling logic to POSIX
layer, top layer always consumes a common FileInfo
construct which simplifies the metadata reads.
- Implement list object versions
- Migrate to siphash from crchash for new deployments
for object placements.
