lua_shared_dict

[matt_l]

Hello

I am using http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLuaModule#lua_shared_dict

I am storing a set of of ids. 

local a_uuid = "...

a_dict.set(a_dict, a_uuid, a_uuid) 

Ideally it would be more efficient for my use case to have lua_shared_set or
lua_shared_bloom_filter

Has anyone encounter/ implement a shared bloom filter or shared set in
nginx?

On a separate note, If I were to store 128 bits (16 bytes)  for the key and
128 bits for the value, I would imagine that a record would take size(key)+
size(value) = 32 bytes of memory. If I want 100 million records I imagine I
need 3.2GB of memory. Can i safely (provided the machine has enough memory)
define lua_shared_dict a_dict 3200m?

Thank you for your help
