[FLINK-9070][state]improve the performance of RocksDBMapState.clear() ## What is the purpose of the change This PR intend to improve the performance of `RocksDBMapState.clear()` base on the follow things: - Using RocksIterator to iterate the records directly (currently we use the RocksDBMapIterator, witch will buffer the records and may also need to perform seeking multi times.) - Using WriteBatch to perform deleting in bulk. ## Brief change log - *improve the `RocksDBMapState.clear()` via iterating the records directly and deleting records using WriteBatch.* ## Verifying this change This change is already covered by existing tests,. ## Does this pull request potentially affect one of the following parts: - Dependencies (does it add or upgrade a dependency): (no) - The public API, i.e., is any changed class annotated with `@Public(Evolving)`: (no) - The serializers: (no) - The runtime per-record code paths (performance sensitive): (no) - Anything that affects deployment or recovery: JobManager (and its components), Checkpointing, Yarn/Mesos, ZooKeeper: (no) - The S3 file system connector: (no) ## Documentation no You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/sihuazhou/flink improveMapStateClear Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/5979.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #5979 ---- commit 969036a32b49b32a4168afb747dff54fe9ada6e6 Author: sihuazhou <summerleafs@...> Date: 2018-04-07T13:52:05Z improve the RocksDBMapState.clear() via iterate the records directly and delete records using WriteBatch. ---- ---
