Lars Hofhansl commented on PHOENIX-3271:
----------------------------------------
When we seed an index it will start with a single region, right? Are are we
making sure that sure that all the region server with data for the table do not
hammer that one poor region server that has the initial region and making it
unusable?
> Distribute UPSERT SELECT across cluster

> Based on some informal testing we've done, it seems that creation of a local
> index is orders of magnitude faster that creation of global indexes (17
> seconds versus 10-20 minutes - though more data is written in the global
> index case). Under the covers, a global index is created through the running
> of an UPSERT SELECT. Also, UPSERT SELECT provides an easy way of copying a
> table. In both of these cases, the data being upserted must all flow back to
> the same client which can become a bottleneck for a large table. Instead,
> what can be done is to push each separate, chunked UPSERT SELECT call out to
> a different region server for execution there. One way we could implement
> this would be to have an endpoint coprocessor push the chunked UPSERT SELECT
> out to each region server and return the number of rows that were upserted
> back to the client.
