Li Pi updated HBASE-4608:
-------------------------

    Attachment: 4608v1.txt

Heres what I have so far. Things are written, and "should work". I need to rework the test cases to test this, and put something in the config file to enable/disable. Obviously this isn't ready for commit at the moment, but I can get those two things done pretty quickly.

Obviously the dictionary is incredibly simple at the moment, I'll come up with something cooler sooner. Let me know how this looks.

> The current bottleneck to HBase write speed is replicating the WAL appends across different datanodes. We can speed up this process by compressing the HLog. Current plan involves using a dictionary to compress table name, region id, cf name, and possibly other bits of repeated data. Also, HLog format may be changed in other ways to produce a smaller HLog.
