[jira] [Updated] (HBASE-6980) Parallel Flushing Of Memstores
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6980?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Kannan Muthukkaruppan updated HBASE-6980:
-----------------------------------------
Description:
For write dominated workloads, single threaded memstore flushing is an unnecessary bottleneck. With a single flusher thread, we are basically not setup to take advantage of the aggregate throughput that multi-disk nodes provide.
* For puts with WAL enabled, the bottleneck is more likely the "single" WAL per region server. So this particular fix may not buy as much unless we unlock that bottleneck with multiple commit logs per region server. (Topic for a separate JIRA-- HBASE-6980).
* But for puts with WAL disabled (e.g., when using HBASE-5783 style fast bulk imports), we should be able to support much better ingest rates with parallel flushing of memstores.
