US Patent 11853577 Tree structure node compaction prioritization

In some examples, a system arranges data in a plurality of nodes in a tree structure, where a given node of the plurality of nodes is associated with a probabilistic data structure that provides a probabilistic indication of whether data is present in the given node. The system determines, for reads of the given node, a false positive measure of false positives indicated by the probabilistic data structure, and prioritizes a compaction of the given node based on the determined false positive measure.
