             Summary: Write snapshots and backups in a way that requires less 
memory
                 Key: AURORA-74
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AURORA-74
             Project: Aurora
          Issue Type: Story
          Components: Scheduler
            Reporter: Bill Farner
            Priority: Minor


Snapshots and backups currently involve passing around instances of the 
{{Snapshot}} struct.  These are fully-hydrated copies of the entire storage.  
As a result, a scheduler process needs a constant multiplier of heap space 
headroom in order to perform these operations without encountering 
{{OutOfMemoryError}}s.  Fixing this will require the ability to 'stream' 
fixed-size parts of storage from {{MemStorage}} to the backing store (currently 
an {{org.apache.mesos.Log}}), or a file in the case of backups.  The reverse is 
also necessary — a snapshot must be read from a sequence of 
{{org.apache.mesos.Log.Entry}}s and fed into the in-memory storage.
