question about read concurrency [JIRA: RIAK-2330]

[benoitc]

I was looking at the code of bitcask and was looking for a way to improve the read concurrency coming from different processes. Questions follow:

• if I open a database as read only in 1 process, and read_write in another, will it be possible to catch novelty in the read_only database? O I could use 1 process for writes and one or more for reads?
• Looking at ìterator/3` (https://github.com/basho/bitcask/blob/develop/src/bitcask.erl#L536-L538) is this possible if know the keydir to open the iterator in another erlang process? The general idea would be having multiple iterator workers processes without seeing stuck to one process.

Bump.
Any update on that?
