Heracles: An Efficient Storage Model and Data Flushing for Performance Monitoring Timeseries
Summary: Heracles: shared-timestamp storage for compression and cross-metric queries, with a two-level epoch memory manager enabling gradual, queryable flushing. On Prometheus tsdb: 171% throughput, 32% latency reduction, 30% space savings; beats LevelDB and Parquet. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
