Storage

fake_dynamo stores the write operations (request that changes the data) in /usr/local/var/fake_dynamo/db.fdb and replays it before starting the server. Because of the way fake_dynamo stores the data, file size tend to grow by time. so fake_dynamo will compact the database during start up if the file size is greater than 100mb. you can manually compact it by passing --compact flag.
