Research direction

Start by reading quickwit-oss/quickwit#2834, then inspect the mrecordlog API and storage paths that currently accept &[u8] and manage record buffers. No files or tests are named in the issue, so first identify the relevant entry points and existing validation. Done means records use Bytes without mrecordlog-managed buffers and on-disk records support compression.

Description

enhancement

In quickwit-oss/quickwit#2834 we have discussed the following optimizations:

  • mrecordlog receives records as Bytes instead of &[u8] and no longer manages record buffers
  • Enable compression for records stored on disk
