> Added an option to allow a caller of HBaseStorage to turn off the WriteAheadLog feature while doing bulk loads into hbase.
> From the performance tuning wikipage: http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/PerformanceTuning
> "To speed up the inserts in a non critical job (like an import job), you can use Put.writeToWAL(false) to bypass writing to the write ahead log."
> We've tested this on HBase 0.20.6 and it helps dramatically.  
> The -noWAL options is passed in just like other options for hbase storage:
> STORE myalias INTO 'MyTable' USING org.apache.pig.backend.hadoop.hbase.HBaseStorage('mycolumnfamily:field1 mycolumnfamily:field2','-noWAL');
> This would be my first patch so please educate me with any steps I need to do.
