- An implementation MUST provide a local persistence mechanism for

- </t>
- <dl>
- <dt>Store(Key, Block)</dt>
- <dd>
- Stores a block under the specified key.
- </dd>
- <dt>Lookup(Key) -> List of Blocks</dt>

- any blocks under keys close to the specified key.
- </dd>
- </dl>
- <t>
- Over time a peer may accumulate a significant number of blocks
- which are stored locally in the persistence layer.
- Due to the expected high number of blocks, the method to
- retrieve blocks close to the specified lookup key in the
- <tt>LookupApproximate</tt> API must be implemented with care
- with respect to efficiency.
- </t>
- <t>
- It is <bcp14>RECOMMENDED</bcp14> to limit the number of results
- from the <tt>LookupApproximate</tt> procedure to a result size
- which is manageable by the local system.
- </t>
- <t>
- In order to efficiently find a suitable result set, the implementation
- SHOULD follow the following procedure:
- </t>
- <ol>
- <li>
- Sort all blocks by the block key in ascending (decending) order.
- The block keys are interpreted as integer.
- </li>
- <li>
- Alternatingly select a block with a key larger and smaller from
- the sortings.
- The resulting set is sorted by XOR distance.
- The selection process continues until the upper bound for the
- result set is reached and both sortings do not yield any closer
- blocks.
- </li>
- </ol>
- <t>
- An implementation MAY decide to use a custom algorithm in order to
- find the closest blocks in the local storage.
- But, especially for more primitive approaches, such as only
- comparing XOR distances for all blocks in the storage, the
- procedure may become ineffective for large storages.
