Bloom-filter to reduce disk seeks

Idea: Add a bloom-filter to the on-disk index to avoid disk seeks when a key doesnt existin the index. This is an optimization that mostly depends on the workload, but it is assumed that the disk will limit the system performance at high load making this worthwhile.

Bloom Filters

Materialized views/Snapshots

Idea: allow snapshots to be written to disk with an alternative order, filter, aggregation, group by, apply f for each record (map).
