Abstract
A technique for tracking metadata changes includes, after receiving a first plurality of metadata changes into a plurality of in-memory buckets, destaging the first plurality of metadata changes to persistent buckets of a first size in a first persistent tablet. The technique further includes receiving a second plurality of metadata changes into the plurality of in-memory buckets and, in response to receiving an early-destage request prior to the plurality of in-memory buckets becoming full, destaging the second plurality of metadata changes to persistent buckets of a second size in a second persistent tablet, the second size being smaller than the first size.
