Eh well mine was mostly a hack to index SIP packets. Other existing products just shoved every packet into a MySQL table. One column per field, with indexes. You can imagine that does not scale very well. So I ended up doing similar to what you describe.
Fun how designs converge. You'd think there'd be some generic libraries for this kind of stuff. Now there's LevelDB and its SSTable is sort of close but uses Snappy so it can't operate on compressed data.
What's the common library that implements fast, compressed, immutable key values without lots of per record overhead?
