# Forky
Ethereum Swarm Chunk Store experiment. Intended only for demonstration of possible performance improvements.
## Etymology
Name _forky_ comes from the default Swarm fixed chunk data size of 4096 bytes or 4K (four kay -> forky) bytes, as this storage supports only fixed sized data chunks.
It is also a Toy Story 4 character. Given that Debian project uses Toy Story character names for release codenames, such correlation is quite nice.
## Tests
Default tests are configured to validate correctness of implementations:
```
go test -v
```
To see results with different number of chunks tests can be run with optional arguments:
```
go test -timeout 30m -v github.com/janos/forky/leveldb -chunks 1000000
```
This will run both plain LevelDB store and Forky with LevelDB MetaStore tests with timings for comparison. A high number of chunks require setting an appropriate timeout flag, also.
