🔧 Configuration Options

GigaMap Configuration

var config = EmbeddedStorageConfiguration.Builder()
    .SetGigaMapEnabled(true)
    .SetGigaMapDefaultSegmentSize(16)        // Optimize for your data size
    .SetGigaMapUseOffHeapIndices(true)       // For large indices
    .SetGigaMapIndexDirectory("indices")     // Separate storage
    .Build();

Performance Tuning

// Tune for your specific use case
var gigaMap = new ConcurrentGigaMap<Person>(
    EqualityComparer<Person>.Default,
    lowLevelLengthExponent: 8,      // 256 entities per low-level segment
    midLevelLengthExponent: 12,     // 4K entities per mid-level segment
    highLevelMinimumLengthExponent: 16,  // 64K minimum high-level
