The Starburst Long Field Manager
Summary: Starburst long field manager handles large objects with a buddy-system disk allocator to create large extents and reduce seeks. Recovery uses shadow-based methods for long-field data and WAL for metadata with long-term and instantaneous locks. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
