<para>The way to calculate how much memory is available in HBase for caching is: </para>
<programlisting>
- number of region servers * heap size * hfile.block.cache.size * 0.85
+ number of region servers * heap size * hfile.block.cache.size * 0.99
</programlisting>
<para>The default value for the block cache is 0.25 which represents 25% of the available
- heap. The last value (85%) is the default acceptable loading factor in the LRU cache
+ heap. The last value (99%) is the default acceptable loading factor in the LRU cache
after which eviction is started. The reason it is included in this equation is that it
would be unrealistic to say that it is possible to use 100% of the available memory
since this would make the process blocking from the point where it loads new blocks.
Here are some examples: </para>

- size will have 217MB of block cache available.</para>
