Abstract

Systems and techniques for collecting and using merge tree garbage metrics are described herein. A kvset is created for a node in a KVS tree. Here, a set of kvset metrics for the kvset are computed as part of the node creation. The kvset is added to the node. The node is selected for a compaction operation based on a metric in the set of kvset metrics. The compaction operation is performed on the node.
