[jira] [Updated] (COUCHDB-994) Crash after compacting large views

["Adam Kocoloski (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-994?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Adam Kocoloski updated COUCHDB-994:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: 0001-Write-header-before-handing-over-compacted-group.patch

Here's a patch to address issue #1.  It ensures that the compacted view group has a valid header before handing it over to the couch_view_group process.  This means that the index will not be reset if the server crashes after the file has been renamed but before the next delayed_commit message arrives.

It does not address the possibility of using a .compact view index if the main index file has been deleted, which could happen if the server crashes in between the delete and the rename.

> The database has over 9 million records. Several of the views are relatively dense in that they emit a key for most documents. The views are successfully created initially but with relatively large sizes from 20 to 95G. When attempting to compact them, the server will crash upon completion of the compaction.
> This does not occur with the released 1.0.1 version but does with the 1.0.x svn version. I'll attach example logs. Unfortunately they are level error and may not have enough information.
