[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-3571) Why do we have a lock in CompactSplitThread when only ever one instance of this thread?

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3571?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13052031#comment-13052031 ] 

Joey Echeverria commented on HBASE-3571:
----------------------------------------

I looked at the code, and it looks like this was fixed in HBASE-3797/HBASE-1476.

> This lock in CompactSplitThread doesn't do anything best as I can tell:
> {code}
>   private final ReentrantLock lock = new ReentrantLock();
> {code}
> If two instances of CompactSplitThread, it would not prevent the two threads contending since its local to the instance.
> Remove it.
