> Key: HADOOP-2624
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2624
> Project: Hadoop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: contrib/hbase
> Reporter: stack
>
> Each Store has a Memcache of edits that is flushed on a fixed period (It used
> to be flushed when it grew beyond a limit). A Region can be made up of N
> Stores. A regionserver has no upper bound on the number of regions that can
> be deployed to it currently. Add to this that per mapfile, we have read the
> index into memory. We're also talking about adding caching of blocks and
> cells.
> We need a means of keeping an account of memory usage adjusting cache sizes
> and flush rates (or sizes) dynamically -- using References where possible --
> to accomodate deployment of added regions. If memory is strained, we should
> reject regions proffered by the master with a resouce-constrained, or some
> such, message.
> The manual sizing we currently do ain't going to cut it for clusters of any
> decent size.
