  Description     : a key/value/list/hash storage component for the Node.js pixl-server framework

 This module is a component for use in pixl-server. It implements a simple
 key/value storage system that can use multiple back-ends, such as Amazon
 S3, Redis, or a local filesystem. It introduces the concept of a "chunked
 linked list", which supports extremely fast push, pop, shift, unshift,
 and random reads/writes. Also provided is a fast hash table
 implementation with key iteration, a transaction system, and an indexing
 and search system.
 .
 Features:
 .
  - Uses very little memory in most cases.
  - Store JSON or binary (raw) data records.
  - Supports multiple back-ends including Amazon S3, Redis,
    and local filesystem.
  - Linked lists with very fast push, pop, shift, unshift,
    and random reads/writes.
  - Hash tables with key iterators, and very fast reads / writes.
  - Advisory locking system with shared and exclusive locks.
  - Variable expiration dates per key and automatic deletion.
  - Transaction system for isolated compound operations
    and atomic commits, rollbacks.
  - Indexing system for searches across collections of JSON records.
  - Supports Google-style full-text search queries.
 .
 Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine.
