This PR improves the efficiency of the nodeIterator
seek
operation.Previously, the
seek
operation used thenextChild
to iterate across the fullnode chldren, resolving each as it traversed towards the seek position.Example:
The marker it starts on is
00 01 0e ....
. To find it, it resolves00
,0000
(!),0001
,000104
(!),000108
(!) and00010e
. The ones marked with (!) are siblings that should not have to be resolved.Since we resolve the fullnode parent (at 0001), it should be possible for the iterator to go directly to the
00010e
child without resolving the sibling children.So it does 9 lookups. After this PR, it does only 6: 00, 0001, 00010e, 0002, 000206, 00020600.:
