Netdata VS zstd

netdata.cloud — Netdata is an open-source tool to collect real-time metrics. It's a growing product and can also be found on GitHub!

Netdata is designed with efficiency, scalability, and flexibility in mind, aiming to address most of the challenges associated with both open-source tools and commercial SaaS offerings.

Monitoring = netdata on each RPi https://www.netdata.cloud/ binded to the vpn interface being scraped into a prometeus thaons https://thanos.io/ setup with grafana to give management the Green all is good screens (very important).

We run netdata to have a bit of insight into whats happening on the 10+ dedicated servers in Falkenstein. So far we have seen a 1hour_ecc_memory_correctable about once a month. Suddenly we get 1hour_ecc_memory_correctable like every day from different servers. Any ideas why that could be happening?

I started the discussion, and offered a solution too:

hey - I work on ML at Netdata (disclaimer).

We have a big PR open and under review at moment that brings in a lot more logs capabilities: https://github.com/netdata/netdata/pull/13291

We also have some specific logs collectors too - i think in here might be best place to look around at the moment, should take you to the logs part of the integrations section in our demo space (no login needed, sorry for the long horrible url, we adding this section to our docs soon but at moment only lives in the app)

This VFS will read a sqlite file after it has been compressed using [zstd seekable format](https://github.com/facebook/zstd/blob/dev/contrib/seekable_f...). Built to support read-only databases for full-text search. Benchmarks are provided in README.

Of course, you may get different results with another dataset.

gzip (zlib -6) [ratio=32%] [compr=35Mo/s] [dec=407Mo/s]

zstd (zstd -2) [ratio=32%] [compr=356Mo/s] [dec=1067Mo/s]

NB1: The default for zstd is -3, but the table only had -2. The difference is probably small. The range is 1-22 for zstd and 1-9 for gzip.

NB2: The default program for gzip (at least with Debian) is the executable from zlib. With my workflows, libdeflate-gzip iscompatible and noticably faster.

NB3: This benchmark is 2 years old. The latest releases of zstd are much better, see https://github.com/facebook/zstd/releases

For a high compression, according to this benchmark xz can do slightly better, if you're willing to pay a 10× penalty on decompression.

xz -9 [ratio=23%] [compr=2.6Mo/s] [dec=88Mo/s]

zstd -9 [ratio=23%] [compr=2.6Mo/s] [dec=88Mo/s]

Compression, synchronization and backup systems often use rolling hash to implement "content-defined chunking", an effective form of deduplication.

In optimized implementations, Rabin-Karp is likely to be the bottleneck. See for instance https://github.com/facebook/zstd/pull/2483 which replaces a Rabin-Karp variant by a >2x faster Gear-Hashing.

I've done that experiment with zstd before.

Not sure about brotli though.

If you want this functionality in zstd itself, check this out: https://github.com/facebook/zstd/pull/2349
