# Implementation Gaps: Go NATS Server vs .NET Port
|
||
|
||
**Last updated:** 2026-02-26
|
||
|
||
## Overview
|
||
|
||
| Metric | Go Server | .NET Port | Ratio |
|
||
|--------|-----------|-----------|-------|
|
||
| Source lines | ~130K (109 files) | ~39.1K (215 files) | 3.3x |
|
||
| Test methods | 2,937 `func Test*` | 5,914 `[Fact]`/`[Theory]` (~6,532 with parameterized) | 2.0x |
|
||
| Go tests mapped | 2,646 / 2,937 (90.1%) | — | — |
|
||
| .NET tests linked to Go | — | 4,250 / 5,808 (73.2%) | — |
|
||
| Largest source file | filestore.go (12,593 lines) | NatsServer.cs (1,883 lines) | 6.7x |
|
||
|
||
The .NET port has grown significantly from the prior baseline (~27K→~39.1K lines). All 15 original gaps have seen substantial growth. As of 2026-02-26, the production gaps plan addressed **29 sub-gaps** across 27 implementation tasks in 4 phases, closing all Tier 1 (CRITICAL) gaps and nearly all Tier 2 (HIGH) gaps. The remaining gaps are primarily in Tier 3 (MEDIUM) and Tier 4 (LOW).
|
||
|
||
## Gap Severity Legend
|
||
|
||
- **CRITICAL**: Core functionality missing, blocks production use
|
||
- **HIGH**: Important feature incomplete, limits capabilities significantly
|
||
- **MEDIUM**: Feature gap exists but workarounds are possible or feature is less commonly used
|
||
- **LOW**: Nice-to-have, minor optimization or edge-case handling
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
## Gap 1: FileStore Block Management (CRITICAL)
|
||
|
||
**Go reference**: `filestore.go` — 12,593 lines
|
||
**NET implementation**: `FileStore.cs` (1,633) + `MsgBlock.cs` (630) + supporting files
|
||
**Current .NET total**: ~5,196 lines in Storage/
|
||
**Gap factor**: 2.4x (down from 20.8x)
|
||
|
||
The .NET FileStore has grown substantially with block-based storage, but the block lifecycle, encryption/compression integration, crash recovery, and integrity checking remain incomplete.
|
||
|
||
### 1.1 Block Rotation & Lifecycle — IMPLEMENTED
|
||
|
||
**Implemented in:** `MsgBlock.cs`, `FileStore.cs` (Task 3, commit phase 1)
|
||
|
||
Block rotation with size thresholds, block sealing, per-block metadata, and background flusher are now implemented. Tests: `FileStoreBlockRotationTests.cs`.
|
||
|
||
### 1.2 Encryption Integration into Block I/O — IMPLEMENTED
|
||
|
||
**Implemented in:** `FileStore.cs`, `MsgBlock.cs` (Task 1, commit phase 1)
|
||
|
||
Per-block AEAD encryption wired into the block write/read path using `AeadEncryptor`. Key generation, recovery, and cipher conversion implemented. Tests: `FileStoreEncryptionTests.cs`.
|
||
|
||
### 1.3 S2 Compression in Block Path — IMPLEMENTED
|
||
|
||
**Implemented in:** `FileStore.cs`, `MsgBlock.cs` (Task 2, commit phase 1)
|
||
|
||
S2 compression integrated into block write/read path using `S2Codec`. Message-level compression and decompression during block operations. Tests: `FileStoreCompressionTests.cs`.
|
||
|
||
### 1.4 Crash Recovery & Index Rebuilding — IMPLEMENTED
|
||
|
||
**Implemented in:** `FileStore.cs`, `MsgBlock.cs` (Task 4, commit phase 1)
|
||
|
||
Full crash recovery with block scanning, index rebuilding, TTL wheel recovery, lost-data tracking, and MaxAge enforcement on recovery. Tests: `FileStoreCrashRecoveryTests.cs`.
|
||
|
||
### 1.5 Checksum Validation (HIGH)
|
||
|
||
Go uses highway hash for per-message checksums and validates integrity on read.
|
||
|
||
**Missing:**
|
||
- `msgBlock.lchk[8]byte` — last checksum buffer
|
||
- `msgBlock.hh *highwayhash.Digest64` — highway hasher
|
||
- `msgBlock.lastChecksum()` (line 2204) — returns last computed checksum
|
||
- Message checksum validation during `msgFromBufEx()` (line ~8180)
|
||
|
||
**.NET status**: `MessageRecord` has no checksum field. No integrity checks on read.
|
||
|
||
### 1.6 Atomic File Overwrites (HIGH)
|
||
|
||
Go uses temp file + rename for crash-safe state updates.
|
||
|
||
**Missing:**
|
||
- `_writeFullState()` (line 10599) — atomic state serialization with temp file + rename
|
||
- State file write protection with mutual exclusion (`wfsmu`/`wfsrun`)
|
||
|
||
**.NET status**: Writes directly without atomic guarantees.
|
||
|
||
### 1.7 Tombstone & Deletion Tracking (HIGH)
|
||
|
||
**Missing:**
|
||
- `removeMsg()` (line 5267) — removes message with optional secure erase
|
||
- `removeMsgFromBlock()` (line 5307) — removes from specific block
|
||
- `eraseMsg()` (line 5890) — overwrites deleted message with random data (secure erase)
|
||
- Sparse `avl.SequenceSet` for deletion tracking (Go uses AVL; .NET uses `HashSet<ulong>`)
|
||
- Tombstone record persistence (deleted messages lost on crash in .NET)
|
||
|
||
### 1.8 Multi-Block Write Cache (MEDIUM)
|
||
|
||
**Missing Go functions:**
|
||
- `setupWriteCache()` (line 4443) — sets up write cache
|
||
- `finishedWithCache()` (line 4477) — marks cache complete
|
||
- `expireCache()` / `expireCacheLocked()` (line 6148+) — expires idle cache
|
||
- `resetCacheExpireTimer()` / `startCacheExpireTimer()` — manages cache timeout
|
||
- Elastic reference machinery (line 6704, `ecache.Strengthen()` / `WeakenAfter()`)
|
||
- `flushPendingMsgs()` / `flushPendingMsgsLocked()` (line 7560+) — background flush
|
||
|
||
**.NET status**: Synchronous flush on rotation; no background flusher, no cache expiration.
|
||
|
||
### 1.9 Missing IStreamStore Interface Methods — IMPLEMENTED
|
||
|
||
**Implemented in:** `IStreamStore.cs`, `FileStore.cs`, `MemStore.cs` (Tasks 5-6, commit phase 1)
|
||
|
||
All missing interface methods added to `IStreamStore` and implemented in both `FileStore` and `MemStore`: `StoreRawMsg`, `LoadNextMsgMulti`, `LoadPrevMsg`, `LoadPrevMsgMulti`, `NumPendingMulti`, `SyncDeleted`, `EncodedStreamState`, `Utilization`, `FlushAllPending`, `RegisterStorageUpdates`, `RegisterStorageRemoveMsg`, `RegisterProcessJetStreamMsg`, `ResetState`, `UpdateConfig`, `Delete(bool)`, `Stop()`. Tests: `StreamStoreInterfaceTests.cs`.
|
||
|
||
### 1.10 Query/Filter Operations (MEDIUM)
|
||
|
||
Go uses trie-based subject indexing (`SubjectTree[T]`) for O(log n) lookups. .NET uses linear LINQ scans.
|
||
|
||
**Missing:**
|
||
- `FilteredState()` (line 3191) — optimized filtered state with caching

||
**Current .NET total**: ~2,787 lines in Cluster/ + Raft/
|
||
**Gap factor**: ~3.9x
|
||
**Missing functions**: ~84
|
||
|
||
The .NET implementation provides a skeleton suitable for unit testing but lacks the real cluster coordination machinery. The Go implementation is deeply integrated with RAFT, NATS subscriptions for inter-node communication, and background monitoring goroutines.

## Test Coverage Gap Summary
|
||
|
||
All 2,937 Go tests have been categorized:
|
||
- **2,646 mapped** (90.1%) — have corresponding .NET tests
|
||
- **272 not_applicable** (9.3%) — platform-specific or irrelevant
|
||
- **19 skipped** (0.6%) — intentionally deferred
|
||
- **0 unmapped** — none remaining
|
||
|
||
The .NET test suite has **5,914 test methods** (expanding to ~6,532 with parameterized `[Theory]` test cases). Of these, **4,250** (73.2%) are linked back to Go test counterparts via the `test_mappings` table. The remaining tests are .NET-specific — covering implementations (SubjectTree, ConfigProcessor, NatsConfLexer, RAFT WAL, joint consensus, etc.) that don't have 1:1 Go counterparts.
|
||
|
||
The production gaps implementation (2026-02-25/26) added **106 new test methods** across 10 new test files covering FileStore block management, RAFT persistence, cluster coordination, consumer delivery, stream lifecycle, client protocol, MQTT persistence, config reload, and route/gateway discovery.
|
||
|
||
Many tests validate API contracts against stubs/mocks rather than testing actual distributed behavior. The gap is in test *depth*, not test *count*.
