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

> 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.
