Overview
This is a proof-of-concept built on top of grafana/mimir-prometheus#860
It leverages the new BatchAppender that has a BatchSeriesRefs method that can create multiple series in a single call.
Background
Whenever a tenant has lots of series churn, or especially when ingesters start receiving series after a while (after startup or going out of read only mode), we see lots of mutex contention on
MemPostings
as hundreds and thousands of calls toMemPostings.Add
occur, each one trying to acquire the lock.I tried optimizing that with no luck in the past, this is yet another try.
This leverages a new method in
headAppender
that will allow us creating all series at once.
