[jira] [Created] (HBASE-4586) ThriftServer doesn't expose autoflush/writebuffer settings needed for write-heavy loads

ThriftServer doesn't expose autoflush/writebuffer settings needed for write-heavy loads
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HBASE-4586
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4586
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: thrift
    Affects Versions: 0.90.4
            Reporter: Norbert Burger


For write-heavy/bulk-load environments, two common recommendations are to disable autoFlush and increase the size of the write buffer:

HTable.setAutoFlush(false)
HTable.setWriteBufferSize(long writeBufferSize)

Neither of exposed via the Thrift API, which seems to preclude using the Thrift interface for write-heavy environments.

As a workaround, we could specify hbase.client.write.buffer in hbase-site.xml, but there is unfortunately not an equivalent configuration setting for autoflush.

Ted Yu commented on HBASE-4586:
-------------------------------

According to Tim Sell:
This isn't trivial because we use HTablePool and it doesn't expose setting autoFlush on.
