Persist caches keys index at configurable pace

Introduce 'cache.persistIndexEvery' parameter (by default '15m') that
specifies how often indexes should be persisted to a disk.
Notes:
* in order to avoid race condition between evict and persist operations
  the latter is performed after the former is finished
* considering the above the smallest duration between persist operations
  is 30s amd smaller values of 'persistIndexEvery' will be rounded up to
  30s
* higher values are rounded down (if needed) to the closest multiple of
  30s
* persist operation is additionally called on Gerrit exit - regardless
  of the configured duration but it will be skipped on a particular
  index level if there is one already running (as a result of schedule)
* persist operation is scheduled in a dedicated thread
  'ChronicleMap-Index-0'

Example when 'cache.persistIndexEvery = 2m' it means that persist
operation will be performed after every 4th eviction is finished.
And additionally on Gerrit exit provided that there is no one in
progress.

Persistent cache for Gerrit, based on ChronicleMap

Non-blocking and super-fast on-disk cache libModule for Gerrit Code Review based on ChronicleMap on-disk implementation.

How to build

This libModule is built like a Gerrit in-tree plugin, using Bazelisk. See the build instructions for more details.

Setup

  • Install cache-chronicalmap module

Install the chronicle-map module into the $GERRIT_SITE/lib directory.

Add the cache-chroniclemap module to $GERRIT_SITE/etc/gerrit.config as follows:

[gerrit]
  installModule = com.googlesource.gerrit.modules.cache.chroniclemap.ChronicleMapCacheModule

For further information and supported options, refer to config documentation.
