Hudson commented on HBASE-2899: ------------------------------- Integrated in HBase-TRUNK #1909 (See [https://builds.apache.org/hudson/job/HBase-TRUNK/1909/]) HBASE-3864 Rename of hfile.min.blocksize.size in HBASE-2899 reverted in HBASE-1861 > hfile.min.blocksize.size ignored/documentation wrong > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-2899 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2899 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Lars Francke > Assignee: stack > Priority: Trivial > Attachments: 2899.txt > > > There is a property in hbase-default.xml called {{hfile.min.blocksize.size}} > set to {{65536}}. > The description says: Minimum store file block size. The smaller you make > this, the bigger your index and the less you fetch on a random-access. Set > size down if you have small cells and want faster random-access of > individual cells. > This property is only used in the HFileOutputFormat and nowhere else. So we > should at least change the description to something more meaningful. > The other option I see would be: HFile now has a DEFAULT_BLOCKSIZE field > which could be moved to HConstants and HFile could somehow read the > {{hfile.min.blocksize.size}} from the Configuration or use > HConstansts.DEFAULT_BLOCKSIZE if it's not defined. I believe this is what's > happening to the other config variables? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
