[jira] [Resolved] (HBASE-10247) Client promises about timestamps

["Lars Hofhansl (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10247?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Lars Hofhansl resolved HBASE-10247.
-----------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

See discussion further down. It is not possible to achieve this while still supporting asynchronous replication if we cannot guarantee strict ordering.

> This is to start a discussion about timestamp promises declared per table of CF.
> For example if a client promises only monotonically increasing timestamps (or no custom set timestamps) and VERSIONS=1, we can aggressively and easily remove old versions of the same row/fam/col from the memstore before we flush, just by supplying a comparator that ignores the timestamp (i.e. two KV just differing by TS would be considered equal).
> That would increase the performance of counters significantly.
