- # Disk architecture — one owner, and what goes first when it is short
2
-
3
- Three things on this proxy write to the same disk. Until 2026-09-10 each read
4
- the free space as though it were the only claimant, so there were three
5
- ceilings, each standing for the whole disk.
6
-
7
- | what | where | what bounded it before |
8
- |---|---|---|
9
- | segments an encoder produced | `services/encode/SegmentStore.js` | a quarter of what was free, plus a 2 GB floor — both numbers chosen by hand |
10
- | pieces the memory store spilled | `services/storage/piece-store/piece-disk-store.js` | **nothing at all** |
11
- | diagnostics kept on purpose | `/data` — core dumps, heap snapshots, packet captures | a count of files, never a size |
12
-
13
- The middle row is what it cost: one fifty-minute viewing wrote **14 400 MB** to
14
- the spill file (field 2026-08-31) while the store held 312-424 MB, and free
15
- space on the host fell by every megabyte of it. The bottom row is 2.9 GB of one
16
- core dump on the addon host, inside a budget of "two dumps".
17
-
18
- ## One owner
19
-
20
- `services/disk/DiskSpace.js` reads the free space once and divides it. The rule
21
- is the one memory already uses, on the other reading:
22
-
23
- ```
24
- allowance = free now + what we already hold - what everything that is not us has been seen to need
25
- ```
26
-
27
- Nothing in it is a fraction chosen by hand. The reserve is measured: between two
28
- readings, how much free space went away beyond what our own consumers took.
29
-
30
- `services/disk/wire.js` says who the claimants are. The segments are told their
31
- share by a call; the spilled pieces live on the torrent thread, so the share
32
- travels the channel that already carries everything else and the reply says what
33
- they hold — one exchange, both directions.
34
-
35
- The reading is said every pass, in the series beside the memory one:
36
-
37
- ```
38
- disk: 104584MB free; segments 0MB of 52292MB, spilled pieces 0MB of 52292MB
39
- ```
40
-
41
- ## Two rules, answering two questions
42
-
43
- They are kept apart because they were briefly proposed as one, and that was
44
- wrong.
45
-
46
- **Time.** Material nobody needs should not sit on the owner's disk merely
47
- because there is room for it. An output nobody has read for long enough goes
48
- whole, whatever the free space is.
49
-
50
- **Space.** Material everyone needs must still go when there is no room.
51
-
52
- A ceiling alone would keep 5 GB on a household disk for six hours because the
53
- disk is large. An idle rule alone would keep everything until its clock ran out,
54
- however tight the disk had become.
55
-
56
- ## What goes first, and it is the viewers who decide
57
-
58
- For the segments, the order is the priority map's own read from the other end:
59
-
60
- 1. outputs nobody is watching at all;
61
- 2. what lies behind the earliest viewer — furthest behind first;
62
- 3. what lies ahead of the furthest viewer — furthest ahead first.
63
-
64
- A segment a viewer is standing on is never a victim. It used to be whole outputs
65
- by when their directory was last read, which says nothing about what anybody is
66
- about to watch.
67
-
68
- ## A piece is a file
69
-
70
- `DiskTier` wrote every spilled piece into ONE sparse file at
71
- `index * chunkLength` and answered `forget(index)` by dropping the number from a
72
- set. The bytes stayed: a sparse file's blocks come back only by hole punching,
73
- which Node exposes no binding for, so nothing this process could do returned a
74
- single block before the whole file was removed.
75
-
76
- `PieceDiskStore` gives each piece its own file. Removing one returns exactly its
77
- blocks, needs no binding this runtime lacks, and makes the unit of eviction the
78
- same as the unit of storage — so the order pieces leave in is the order we
79
- choose. Over its allowance the least recently used goes, and a piece being read
80
- is never the victim. A piece thrown away is answered as absent, so the torrent
81
- fetches it again, which is the same bargain the memory tier makes when it
82
- spills.
83
-
84
- The read this replaced was chosen for its cost — 22.08 ms via `readFile` against
85
- **7.63 ms** into a buffer we already hold, measured on the field host — and that
86
- is unchanged: it is still one `read` into the caller's buffer. What it adds is
87
- an `open` per read, tens of microseconds against those milliseconds.
88
-
89
- ## A clean exit leaves nothing of ours
90
-
91
- The segments' root was removed only when it happened to be empty — from the
92
- first commit of this repository, never a decision. What it protected against is
93
- a second proxy sharing the root; what it did was leave every directory alone,
94
- including this process's own orphans. A directory adopted at startup, owned by
95
- no session, therefore survived the exit and was adopted again at the next start.
96
-
97
- That loop is what made an orphan permanent, and it is why 5.0 GB of segments
98
- from sessions that had ended hours before were on the addon host on 2026-09-10.
99
- `SegmentStore.dropAll` now removes everything this process owns, root included,
100
- which also gives the startup sweep its meaning back: whatever is found then is
101
- from a kill.
102
-
103
- Both kinds have both rules. For the spilled pieces the time rule is the same
104
- statement one layer down: a piece behind every read head has been read and will
105
- not be read again unless somebody seeks back, and a seek back re-downloads it —
106
- the bargain this tier already makes whenever it drops a piece for room.
107
- `PieceLru.readHeads` says where the readers stand, `PieceDiskStore.forgetBehind`
108
- acts on it, and the eviction order under pressure is the same: behind the
109
- earliest reader first, furthest behind first of all. With no reader at all
110
- nothing is removed — a store between reads is not a store nobody wants, and the
111
- torrent going idle is what empties it whole.
112
-
113
- ## How long material nobody is using is kept
114
-
115
- One number, in one place — `services/disk/keep.js`, one hour — because
116
- everything it governs stands for the same unmeasured thing: whether the viewer
117
- comes back.
118
-
119
- It was three, and they contradicted each other:
120
-
121
- | what | was | now |
122
- |---|---|---|
123
- | a torrent and its downloaded bytes | 15 minutes | one hour |
124
- | a session | 30 minutes | unchanged — a session is a record, not material |
125
- | the segments an encoder produced | 6 hours | one hour |
126
-
127
- The torrent went at fifteen minutes while the session it feeds lived to thirty,
128
- so between them there was a session with no source: a viewer returning at the
129
- twentieth minute got a session that could not make a single new segment. With
130
- one hour for both kinds of material the session dies first, which is the right
131
- order and needs no rule of its own to enforce.
132
-
133
- Nothing derives the hour. Everything else in the decision is measured — a piece
134
- comes back from the swarm in ~1430 ms, a segment in its own encode time, and the
135
- disk has an owner that prices holding it — and only the return is unknown.
136
-
137
- **And the return is measurable here.** A session opened on an output whose
138
- segments are still on disk IS a return, and its age is exactly what the store
139
- recorded. `services/disk/returns.js` keeps them and says so beside the disk
140
- figures:
141
-
142
- ```
143
- returns: 14 session(s) opened on material still held, 3 on material gone;
144
- median 12min after the last read, longest 51min — kept for 60min
145
- ```
146
-
147
- The median and the longest are the two the period has to sit between: shorter
148
- than the median throws away material half the returns wanted, longer than the
149
- longest keeps material no return has ever reached. A week of ordinary use and
150
- the hour is replaced by what viewers actually do — and then the two kinds can
151
- have different numbers, since their costs of coming back differ.
152
-
153
- ## What is NOT solved
154
-
155
- **The measurement that would replace the hour has not been taken yet.** The
156
- counter is in place and says nothing until a week of ordinary use has produced a
157
- distribution.
158
-
159
- **The diagnostics are not a claimant yet.** They are bounded by a count of files
160
- and never by a size, and they cannot simply be thrown away when space is short: a
161
- dump is the only evidence of the death it records. That needs a rule of its own.
162
-
163
- ## One layer, four directories, and under the import rule
164
-
165
- `SegmentStore` moved out of `services/encode/` on 2026-09-14 — a store of
166
- finished pieces inside the ENCODING layer was the encoder owning its own disk.
167
- It did not move into the room's own directory either: it is a CLAIMANT, and a
168
- claimant inside the owner of the resource is the same fault one floor down.
169
-
170
- **Four directories, deliberately.** They share one property — bytes on a medium
171
- with a limit — and that is what makes them one layer. What they are is three
172
- different things: a torrent piece is born when it is downloaded and addressed by
173
- `(infohash, number)`; a produced segment is born when an encoder closes it and
174
- addressed by `(output key, number)`; a whole file is born when its last piece
175
- lands. Different birth, different death, different name, and two of the three
176
- live in the torrent WORKER thread while the others are on the main one. Flatten
177
- them and that thread boundary becomes invisible: code that cannot call code
178
- looks like a sibling, and no rule catches it.
179
-
180
- **The rule is written as an exception, not as a list.** `group: ["../**",
181

243
- the addon host 2026-09-05, `/tmp` (the segments and the spill) is the overlay

- claimants on both gave each a share of a disk it does not write to, which is
246
- what the old `DiskSpace` did — it read the free space of the segment root alone.

- exists, for the same reason `freeBytesFor` walks up.
249
-
250
- **Why one owner and not two.** The claimants trade across resources: pieces that
251
- do not fit in memory are spilled to disk, whole files exist so that pieces need
252
- not be held, segments exist because making them again is dear. Field 2026-08-31:
253
- 14 400 MB spilled in fifty minutes while the memory store held 312-424 MB — give
254
- it memory and there is no spill to bound. Two owners cannot make that trade,
255
- because neither sees both sides of it. Memory was divided inside the torrent
256
- thread and disk on the main one until 2026-09-14; the memory share now travels
257
- the same channel the spill share already did.

- **The policy is the operator's, and it is the only chosen number here.**
260

263

1
+ # Disk architecture — one owner, and what goes first when it is short
2
+
3
+ Three things on this proxy write to the same disk. Until 2026-09-10 each read
4
+ the free space as though it were the only claimant, so there were three
5
+ ceilings, each standing for the whole disk.
6
+
7
+ | what | where | what bounded it before |
8
+ |---|---|---|
9
+ | segments an encoder produced | `services/encode/SegmentStore.js` | a quarter of what was free, plus a 2 GB floor — both numbers chosen by hand |
10
+ | pieces the memory store spilled | `services/storage/piece-store/piece-disk-store.js` | **nothing at all** |
11
+ | diagnostics kept on purpose | `/data` — core dumps, heap snapshots, packet captures | a count of files, never a size |
12
+
13
+ The middle row is what it cost: one fifty-minute viewing wrote **14 400 MB** to
14
+ the spill file (field 2026-08-31) while the store held 312-424 MB, and free
15
+ space on the host fell by every megabyte of it. The bottom row is 2.9 GB of one
16
+ core dump on the addon host, inside a budget of "two dumps".
17
+
18
+ ## One owner
19
+
20
+ `services/disk/DiskSpace.js` reads the free space once and divides it. The rule
21
+ is the one memory already uses, on the other reading:
22
+
23
+ ```
24
+ allowance = free now + what we already hold - what everything that is not us has been seen to need
25
+ ```
26
+
27
+ Nothing in it is a fraction chosen by hand. The reserve is measured: between two
28
+ readings, how much free space went away beyond what our own consumers took.
29
+
30
+ `services/disk/wire.js` says who the claimants are. The segments are told their
31
+ share by a call; the spilled pieces live on the torrent thread, so the share
32
+ travels the channel that already carries everything else and the reply says what
33
+ they hold — one exchange, both directions.
34
+
35
+ The reading is said every pass, in the series beside the memory one:
36
+
37
+ ```
38
+ disk: 104584MB free; segments 0MB of 52292MB, spilled pieces 0MB of 52292MB
39
+ ```
40
+
41
+ ## Two rules, answering two questions
42
+
43
+ They are kept apart because they were briefly proposed as one, and that was
44
+ wrong.
45
+
46
+ **Time.** Material nobody needs should not sit on the owner's disk merely
47
+ because there is room for it. An output nobody has read for long enough goes
48
+ whole, whatever the free space is.
49
+
50
+ **Space.** Material everyone needs must still go when there is no room.
51
+
52
+ A ceiling alone would keep 5 GB on a household disk for six hours because the
53
+ disk is large. An idle rule alone would keep everything until its clock ran out,
54
+ however tight the disk had become.
55
+
56
+ ## What goes first, and it is the viewers who decide
57
+
58
+ For the segments, the order is the priority map's own read from the other end:
59
+
60
+ 1. outputs nobody is watching at all;
61
+ 2. what lies behind the earliest viewer — furthest behind first;
62
+ 3. what lies ahead of the furthest viewer — furthest ahead first.
63
+
64
+ A segment a viewer is standing on is never a victim. It used to be whole outputs
65
+ by when their directory was last read, which says nothing about what anybody is
66
+ about to watch.
67
+
68
+ ## A piece is a file
69
+
70
+ `DiskTier` wrote every spilled piece into ONE sparse file at
71
+ `index * chunkLength` and answered `forget(index)` by dropping the number from a
72
+ set. The bytes stayed: a sparse file's blocks come back only by hole punching,
73
+ which Node exposes no binding for, so nothing this process could do returned a
74
+ single block before the whole file was removed.
75
+
76
+ `PieceDiskStore` gives each piece its own file. Removing one returns exactly its
77
+ blocks, needs no binding this runtime lacks, and makes the unit of eviction the
78
+ same as the unit of storage — so the order pieces leave in is the order we
79
+ choose. Over its allowance the least recently used goes, and a piece being read
80
+ is never the victim. A piece thrown away is answered as absent, so the torrent
81
+ fetches it again, which is the same bargain the memory tier makes when it
82
+ spills.
83
+
84
+ The read this replaced was chosen for its cost — 22.08 ms via `readFile` against
85
+ **7.63 ms** into a buffer we already hold, measured on the field host — and that
86
+ is unchanged: it is still one `read` into the caller's buffer. What it adds is
87
+ an `open` per read, tens of microseconds against those milliseconds.
88
+
89
+ ## A clean exit leaves nothing of ours
90
+
91
+ The segments' root was removed only when it happened to be empty — from the
92
+ first commit of this repository, never a decision. What it protected against is
93
+ a second proxy sharing the root; what it did was leave every directory alone,
94
+ including this process's own orphans. A directory adopted at startup, owned by
95
+ no session, therefore survived the exit and was adopted again at the next start.
96
+
97
+ That loop is what made an orphan permanent, and it is why 5.0 GB of segments
98
+ from sessions that had ended hours before were on the addon host on 2026-09-10.
99
+ `SegmentStore.dropAll` now removes everything this process owns, root included,
100
+ which also gives the startup sweep its meaning back: whatever is found then is
101
+ from a kill.
102
+
103
+ Both kinds have both rules. For the spilled pieces the time rule is the same
104
+ statement one layer down: a piece behind every read head has been read and will
105
+ not be read again unless somebody seeks back, and a seek back re-downloads it —
106
+ the bargain this tier already makes whenever it drops a piece for room.
107
+ `PieceLru.readHeads` says where the readers stand, `PieceDiskStore.forgetBehind`
108
+ acts on it, and the eviction order under pressure is the same: behind the
109
+ earliest reader first, furthest behind first of all. With no reader at all
110
+ nothing is removed — a store between reads is not a store nobody wants, and the
111
+ torrent going idle is what empties it whole.
112
+
113
+ ## How long material nobody is using is kept
114
+
115
+ One number, in one place — `services/disk/keep.js`, one hour — because
116
+ everything it governs stands for the same unmeasured thing: whether the viewer
117
+ comes back.
118
+
119
+ It was three, and they contradicted each other:
120
+
121
+ | what | was | now |
122
+ |---|---|---|
123
+ | a torrent and its downloaded bytes | 15 minutes | one hour |
124
+ | a session | 30 minutes | unchanged — a session is a record, not material |
125
+ | the segments an encoder produced | 6 hours | one hour |
126
+
127
+ The torrent went at fifteen minutes while the session it feeds lived to thirty,
128
+ so between them there was a session with no source: a viewer returning at the
129
+ twentieth minute got a session that could not make a single new segment. With
130
+ one hour for both kinds of material the session dies first, which is the right
131
+ order and needs no rule of its own to enforce.
132
+
133
+ Nothing derives the hour. Everything else in the decision is measured — a piece
134
+ comes back from the swarm in ~1430 ms, a segment in its own encode time, and the
135
+ disk has an owner that prices holding it — and only the return is unknown.
136
+
137
+ **And the return is measurable here.** A session opened on an output whose
138
+ segments are still on disk IS a return, and its age is exactly what the store
139
+ recorded. `services/disk/returns.js` keeps them and says so beside the disk
140
+ figures:
141
+
142
+ ```
143
+ returns: 14 session(s) opened on material still held, 3 on material gone;
144
+ median 12min after the last read, longest 51min — kept for 60min
145
+ ```
146
+
147
+ The median and the longest are the two the period has to sit between: shorter
148
+ than the median throws away material half the returns wanted, longer than the
149
+ longest keeps material no return has ever reached. A week of ordinary use and
150
+ the hour is replaced by what viewers actually do — and then the two kinds can
151
+ have different numbers, since their costs of coming back differ.
152
+
153
+ ## What is NOT solved
154
+
155
+ **The measurement that would replace the hour has not been taken yet.** The
156
+ counter is in place and says nothing until a week of ordinary use has produced a
157
+ distribution.
158
+
159
+ **The diagnostics are not a claimant yet.** They are bounded by a count of files
160
+ and never by a size, and they cannot simply be thrown away when space is short: a
161
+ dump is the only evidence of the death it records. That needs a rule of its own.
162
+
163
+ ## One layer, four directories, and under the import rule
164
+
165
+ `SegmentStore` moved out of `services/encode/` on 2026-09-14 — a store of
166
+ finished pieces inside the ENCODING layer was the encoder owning its own disk.
167
+ It did not move into the room's own directory either: it is a CLAIMANT, and a
168
+ claimant inside the owner of the resource is the same fault one floor down.
169
+
170
+ **Four directories, deliberately.** They share one property — bytes on a medium
171
+ with a limit — and that is what makes them one layer. What they are is three
172
+ different things: a torrent piece is born when it is downloaded and addressed by
173
+ `(infohash, number)`; a produced segment is born when an encoder closes it and
174
+ addressed by `(output key, number)`; a whole file is born when its last piece
175
+ lands. Different birth, different death, different name, and two of the three
176
+ live in the torrent WORKER thread while the others are on the main one. Flatten
177
+ them and that thread boundary becomes invisible: code that cannot call code
178
+ looks like a sibling, and no rule catches it.
179
+
180
+ **The rule is written as an exception, not as a list.** `group: ["../**",
181
+ "!../storage/**", "!../piece-store/**", "!../segment-store/**", "!../files/**"]`
182
+ — everything outside the layer, minus the layer. A list of forbidden layers was
183
+ tried first and let `../../utils/logger.js` straight through, because a list
184
+ only catches what somebody remembered to write in it. Checked by breaking it,
185
+ in both directions, in all four directories.
186
+
187
+ **One reader of how much memory is free** (`machine-memory.js`). It had been
188
+ written three times — the health collector, the memory report and the piece
189
+ store — and the copies had already drifted: the piece store was corrected from
190
+ `os.freemem()` to the kernel's `MemAvailable` on 2026-08-27 and the health
191
+ collector went on publishing the wrong quantity until 2026-09-02.
192
+
193
+ ## Every claimant is told its share
194
+
195
+ A CLAIMANT IS WHOEVER HOLDS BYTES, and by 2026-09-14 all of them are registered
196
+ with the owner (`wire.js`): the segments an encoder produced, the pieces the
197
+ memory store spilled, the files downloaded whole, and the evidence. Two of the
198
+ four live on the torrent thread and arrive as a pair of closures over its
199
+ channel.
200
+
201
+ **Whole files had no bound of any kind** until that day — a 2.8 GB film kept
202
+ whole on a host whose disk is often a 32 GB card. They now take a share, and
203
+ over it the whole file nobody has asked for in longest goes. Losing one is not
204
+ losing data: the torrent can fetch it again, and until it does the read falls
205
+ back to the pieces, which is what `piece-from-whole-file.js` exists for. A file
206
+ is also not ASSEMBLED when there is no room for it — writing it and then
207
+ removing it is the same bytes written for nothing.
208
+
209
+ **The torrent pool's own "disk cap" is gone, and it owned nothing.** It capped
210
+ `torrentDownloadedBytes` — a sum over WebTorrent's bitfield — so a piece held

213
