in the paper,the checkpoint is in the form of Btree,how do you implement this? the checkpoint can be created without delaying incoming mutations.I don't known how to make it. can you give some explains? thank you

If I recall correctly, this implementation doesn't have checkpointing. This was done as a class project a while back and is now essentially unsupported. When it was written, various constraints (e.g. time) prevented us from fully implementing GFS to the paper's spec.

Hope this helps
