> This issue concludes my task for GSoC 2009 
> The idea is to make all futures from Bigtable paper and other ideas in this processes of to flushing, compacting and splitting.
> Some talk in IRC related to this issue creation:
> [22:37] <jgray2> bigtable has an optimization which, when flushing the memcache, will actually write out a new storefile that merges the existing storefile with the memcache
> [22:37] <jgray2> that way you don't have more than one storefile
> [22:37] <jgray2> which is a huge inefficiency
