[jira] Updated: (HBASE-2506) Too easy to OOME a RS

["Andrew Purtell (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2506?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Andrew Purtell updated HBASE-2506:
----------------------------------

    Priority: Blocker  (was: Major)

Raising priority to blocker. I think we need some sort of answer for this for 0.92 other than, "users: control your writers". Currently a regionserver gives its clients no indication it may be about to overcommit heap.

> Testing a cluster with 1GB heap, I found that we are letting the region servers kill themselves too easily when scanning using pre-fetching. To reproduce, get 10-20M rows using PE and run a count in the shell using CACHE => 30000 or any other very high number. For good measure, here's the stack trace:

> I guess the same could happen with largish write buffers. We need something better than OOME.
