Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-15338:
----------------------------------------

During these tests, we can specify cache blocks as false in Scan/Get and achieve what you want?

> When testing and comparing the performance of different file systems(HDFS, Azure blob storage, AWS S3 and so on) for HBase, it's better to avoid the affect of the HBase BlockCache and get the actually random read latency when data block is read from underlying file system. (Usually, the index block and meta block should be cached in memory in the testing).
> So we add a option in CacheConfig to disable the data block cache.
> Suggestions are welcomed~ Thanks
