Most of the rocksdb keys are relatively small, and we can avoid allocating them by using a
SmallVec
. Based on the heap profilesjemalloc
is able to reuse this memory, but it costs CPU time to do so; also, such a change will reduce the number of (alloc-related) syscalls in non-Linux nodes.The size was chosen to be 64B, as this covers the most common key sizes (including the prefixes).
