The Trisul flow database is a high performance high throughput store specifically designed for Network Flow storage.

The tuning parameters are controlled by the following section in trisulHubConfig.xml Trisul Hub Configuration file

The main tuning are the sizes of the Bitmap Indices and Bloom Filters. The details of the implementation are not important here. We talk about the tyeps and how to disable them.
