Kannan Muthukkaruppan commented on HBASE-3150: ---------------------------------------------- One workaround would be to use: Put.writeToWAL(false). Caveat: This wouldn't work for the case when you have a mix of column families in the Put, some of which you want to write to WAL and others you don't. > Allow some column to not write WALs > ----------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-3150 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3150 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Karthik Ranganathan > Priority: Minor > > We have this unique requirement where some column families hold data that is > indexed from other existing column families. The index data is very large, > and we end up writing these inserts into the WAL and then into the store > files. In addition to taking more iops, this also slows down splitting files > for recovery, etc. > Creating this task to have an option to suppress WAL logging on a per CF > basis. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
