Todd Lipcon commented on HBASE-3455:
------------------------------------

For reference, the R commands I use to produce graphs look like:
{code}
library(ggplot2)
d <- read.table(file="/tmp/fls.txt", header=T)
qplot(time, value, data=melt(subset(d, time>122000&time<127000), c("time"), 
measure.vars=c("free_space", "max_chunk")), facets=variable~., geom="line")
{code}

And since JIRA screwed up formatting on those JVM options, repaste:
{noformat}
-XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCDateStamps -XX:+PrintTenuringDistribution 
-verbose:gc
-Xloggc:$HBASE_HOME/logs/gc$(hostname)-hbase.log
-XX:PrintCMSStatistics=1 -XX:PrintFLSStatistics=1
{noformat}

> Stop-the-world GC pauses have long been a problem in HBase. "Concurrent mode 
> failures" can usually be tuned around by setting the initiating occupancy 
> fraction low, but eventually the heap becomes fragmented and a promotion 
> failure occurs.
> This JIRA is to do research/experiments about the heap fragmentation issue 
> and possible solutions.
