  This is the PR for the freelist improvement from that alibaba article: https://github.com/etcd-io/bbolt/pull/141 https://github.com/etcd-io/bbolt/pull/141 Just to be clear, we are talking about this item from the post-mortem right? > We are working closely with HashiCorp to deploy a new version of Consul that replaces BoltDB with a successor called bbolt that does not have the same issue with unbounded freelist growth. EDIT: I see what you mean. The freelist improvement has to be enabled by setting the `FreelistType` config to "hashmap" (default is "array"). Indeed it doesn't look like consul has done that...

    I think we're still talking about different things, but that is a good move on their part regardless. :) I mean the optional called `FreelistType` has a new option called `FreelistMapType` and the default is `FreelistArrayType`. There is no option in Consul from what I can tell to configure that option. They did have to upgrade from the old boltdb code to the etcd boltdb code to do this though.
