[Tarantool-patches] [PATCH 2/2] memtx: make tuple compare hints optional

Aleksandr Lyapunov alyapunov at tarantool.org
Mon Oct 19 12:51:36 MSK 2020


Since 9fba29abb4e05babb9b23b4413bd8083f0fba933 (memtx: introduce tuple
compare hint) memtx tree key data (indexes) started to contain extra 8
bytes as a hint. Now it is optional and can be turned off in an index
options with "hint = false" entry.

Closes #4927

@TarantoolBot document
Title: memtx: optional tuple compare hints
Update the documentation for an index creation to reflect that there is
now an option to turn off hints for the index.
