Elliott Clark commented on HBASE-9312: -------------------------------------- Since it's runtime based I'll wait for hadoop qa run to pass. If it does I'll commit to trunk and 95. > Lower StochasticLoadBalancer's default max run time > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-9312 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9312 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.95.2 > Reporter: Jean-Daniel Cryans > Assignee: Elliott Clark > Fix For: 0.98.0, 0.96.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-9312-0.patch > > > Three things about the 1 minute it takes to decide if we want to balance or > not: > - 1 minute is also the default socket timeout, so if you call "balancer" in > the shell you often get a SocketTimeoutException back. Bad user experience. > - Elliott was telling me that we might not even need 1 minute to compute a > good balance anyways because of other improvements. I tested 30 seconds on a > badly balanced cluster and it worked well. > - I personally think that 1 minute is too much time (Elliott disagrees). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
