Mingjie Lai commented on HBASE-2468:
------------------------------------
I'm looking at this issue right now, and want to provide a patch it as a
warmup.
My plan is to add a new HConnectionManager::locateRegionInMeta() which is
dedicated for .META. table. It keeps the features of the original version
(locate region for a table+row pair), in addition it puts all this table's
region info to local cache by usig MetaScanner.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2468
> Project: Hadoop HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: client
> Reporter: Todd Lipcon

>
> A couple different use cases cause storms of reads to META during startup.
> For example, a large MR job will cause each map task to hit meta since it
> starts with an empty cache.
> A couple possible improvements have been proposed:
> - MR jobs could ship a copy of META for the table in the DistributedCache
> - Clients could prewarm cache by doing a large scan of all the meta for the
> table instead of random reads for each miss
> - Each miss could fetch ahead some number of rows in META
