New rows went into free space scattered through the 9.6 GB heap on the HDD
(left behind by inspection's updates): one random HDD read per insert, and
seed batches took a median 13 s to store. The existing table becomes the
first partition as it is (a CHECK scan, no rewrite; indexes, its foreign
key and the triggers are taken over by the partitioned parent); new
partitions of 4M ids go in the same tablespace and stay in memory while
they fill.
- Every partition has a unique file_key index; FileStore.insert looks keys
up in all partitions first (a key can't be unique across partitions).
- FilePartitions.ensure() (gc:scheduler) keeps two partitions ahead.
- Stats count files from the partitions; seed:node waits ~20 minutes for
the API before giving a range up.
