Bonjour, In the context Software Heritage (a noble mission to preserve all source code)[0], artifacts have an average size of ~3KB and there are billions of them. They never change and are never deleted. To save space it would make sense to write them, one after the other, in an every growing RBD volume (more than 100TB). An index, located somewhere else, would record the offset and size of the artifacts in the volume.
I wonder if someone already implemented this idea with success? And if not... does anyone see a reason why it would be a bad idea? Cheers [0] https://docs.softwareheritage.org/ -- Loïc Dachary, Artisan Logiciel Libre
