Interfaces and types for large collections that can store up to 4607183514018775041 items like arrays, lists, sets and dictionaries. (Many .NET standard collections are limited to about 2.1 billion items) There are also thread-safe (concurrent) variants of the corresponding collection types.
$ dotnet add package LargeCollectionsLargeCollections is a library for .NET framework that offers a number of interfaces and types for collections that can store up to 4607183514018775041 items. In comparison many .NET standard collections are limited to about 2.1 billion items. There are also thread-safe (concurrent) variants of the corresponding collection types.
Currently supported collections are:
ReadOnlyLargeSpan provides a readonly access to a segment of an IReadOnlyLargeArray. LargeSpan provides access to a segment of an ILargeArray.
DiskCache<TKey, TValue> is a dictionary-like collection that allows to limit the amount of memory (RAM) in MB that will be used. Any memory requirement that exceeds this amount is automatically swapped out to disk. Additionally it offers multi-threaded operations for performance improvements.
SpatialDiskCache<long, TValue> is a DiskCache<long, TValue> that allows to create a spatial index for the contained elements that can be used for spatial queries.
Since many .NET API are designed to work with Streams the LargeMemoryStream implements a Stream based on a LargeArray. It extends on demand when writing to it. Additionally it supports reading and writing operations at the same time.
