PROFILE

Jorge Alejandro Pichardo Cabrera

Worked on the leil-io/saunafs repository, delivering core backend features and reliability improvements over four months. Developed load-aware garbage collection with dynamic throttling and parallelized trash removal to optimize disk I/O and accelerate space reclamation. Enhanced observability by adding real-time GC deletion metrics and space reclamation monitoring to the chunkserver dashboard. Introduced runtime plugin reloading to reduce downtime and tuned cache management for improved write throughput. Stabilized rebalancing logic and master restart handling, refining CI/CD pipelines and test automation to ensure robust deployments. Leveraged C++, concurrent programming, and system programming skills to address performance, monitoring, and operational challenges in distributed file systems.

March 2026: Delivered performance-focused GC optimizations and enhanced observability for leil-io/saunafs. Key changes include a load-aware garbage collector that throttles expiration deletions based on disk throughput, parallelized trash removal across disks, and configurable GC purge workers, plus new monitoring of space reclamation. These changes reduce IO contention during large deletion storms, accelerate space reclaim, and provide precise reclamation metrics for capacity planning. The work demonstrates strong backend performance engineering, multithreading, and observability enhancements with measurable business impact.
