It's not just the root's event log--it's all the event logs. The deferrals allow us to batch writes in an optimized way, and do so with a fully incremental algorithm. In the IO cost model, each "block" read or costs 1 IOP to perform, so we can reduce the IOP cost of writes by a factor of 100-1000x, but reads will still have the same # of nodes to fetch. The event logs augmenting the tree are an effective IO optimization on a B+ tree. |
