MTBL_INFO(1)							    MTBL_INFO(1)

NAME
     mtbl_info - display information about an MTBL file

SYNOPSIS
     mtbl_info FILE [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION
     mtbl_info(1) displays the following information about the MTBL files speci-
     fied on the command line.

     file name -- the name of the MTBL file.

     file size -- the total size of the MTBL file, in bytes.

     index  bytes  -- the total number of bytes and proportion of the total file
     size consumed by the index.

     data block bytes -- the total number of bytes and proportion of  the  total
     file size consumed by data blocks.

     data block size -- the maximum size of an uncompressed data block.

     data block count -- the total number of data blocks.

     entry count -- the total number of key-value entries.

     key  bytes -- the total number of bytes that all keys in the file would oc-
     cupy if stored end-to-end in a byte array with no delimiters.

     value bytes -- the total number of bytes that all values in the file  would
     occupy if stored end-to-end in a byte array with no delimiters.

     compression algorithm -- the algorithm used to compress data blocks. Possi-
     ble values are "none", "snappy", "zlib", "lz4", "lz4hc", and "zstd".

     compactness  --  a  rough metric comparing the total number of bytes in the
     key-value entries with the total size of the MTBL file. It is calculated as
     (file size) / (key bytes + value bytes), and thus takes  into  account  the
     gains  of	data  block  compression  and prefix key compression against the
     overhead of the index, metadata, and data block offset arrays.
