stack commented on HBASE-1476: ------------------------------ OK. I'm good w/ committing this to trunk with your extra comments. Good stuff N. > scaling compaction with multiple threads > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-1476 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1476 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: regionserver > Reporter: Billy Pearson > Assignee: Nicolas Spiegelberg > Labels: moved_from_0_20_5 > Fix For: 0.92.0 > > > Was thinking we should build in support to be able to handle more then one > thread for compactions this will allow us to keep up with compactions when we > get to the point where we store Tb's of data per node and may regions > Maybe a configurable setting to set how many threads a region server can use > for compactions. > With compression turned on my compactions are limited by cpu speed with multi > cores then it would be nice to be able to scale compactions to 2 or more > cores. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
