Enis Soztutar commented on PHOENIX-3789:
----------------------------------------

bq. This earlier behavior was not scalable.
Fully agreed. We have seen this in a few busy clusters that whole cluster grind 
to a halt when one particular region server is slow or unresponsive. 
We were discussing this patch internally, because in theory it helps a lot in 
scaling the index updates. My only concern is that with this patch, we are 
changing the visibility semantics of the data table update versus index table 
update. In the original design, the data table update was not visible until the 
index update was visible. This patch changes the logic completely that data 
table update is visible without even the index RPCs are scheduled. I do no know 
enough details to see whether this will be semantically correct in the 
consistency guarantees with the current design. Are we changing those 
guarantees safely?

> Making cross region server calls while the row is locked can lead to a 
> greater chance of resource starvation. We can use the 
> postBatchMutateIndispensably hook instead of the postBatchMutate call for our 
> processing.
