Abstract
An aspect of space accounting includes providing a counter for each of a plurality of key/value pairs for storage system operations. The key uniquely identifies a logical storage unit on which operations associated with the key are performed, the value identifies an amount of data usage with respect to the operations performed on the logical storage unit, and the counter tracks a type of the operations. An aspect also includes tracking, via corresponding counters, updates to a read/write (RW) tablet associated with a Cuckoo tree. The tracking includes updating a filter to include instances of key/value pairs and the RW tablet in which the pairs are stored. An aspect further includes tracking a plurality of read-only (RO) tablets associated with the Cuckoo tree. The tracking includes updating the filter to include instances of key/value pairs and one or more of the RO tablets in which the pairs are stored.
