Partitioned Garbage Collection of a Large Object Store
Summary: Partitioned garbage collection for a large object store uses on-disk inter-partition references to enable crash-recoverable GC. Global marking across partitions piggybacks on the partitioned pass to reclaim cyclic garbage, preserving locality and reducing disk usage. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
