Figure 5-1. Load times for large-scale test data can be prohibitive with the hybrid-style format
(point-by-point + blob) produced by ordinary Open TSDB (left), but this problem is solved with
rapid ingestion rates obtained by using the open source code extensions to do direct blob insertion
(right).
There are other situations in which direct blob insertion can be beneficial as well, but even
by just making it practical to do realistic testing at scale of a critical time series database, this
approach can have wide impact.
