−summary: Experimental map store optimized for small incremental changes
+
−...
+
−
+
−This is an experimental storage driver where changed data is appended.
+
−Data is simply written as `key = value` pairs to the end of the file.
+
−This allows changes to individual keys to be written without needing to
+
−write out the entire object again, but reads would grow gradually larger
+
−as it still needs to read old overwritten keys. This may be suitable for
+
−eg rosters where individual contacts are changed at a time. In theory,
+
−this could also allow rolling back changes.
