             Summary: Batch update performance drops as the number of regions 
grows
                 Key: HBASE-10305
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10305
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Performance
            Reporter: Chao Shi


In our use case, we use a small number (~5) of proxy programs that read from a 
queue and batch update to HBase. Our program is multi-threaded and HBase client 
will batch mutations to each RS.

We found we're getting lower TPS when there are more regions. I think the 
reason is RS syncs HLog for each region. Suppose there is a single region, the 
batch update will only touch one region and therefore syncs HLog once. And 
suppose there are 10 regions per server, in RS#multi() it have to process 
update for each individual region and sync HLog 10 times.

Please note that in our scenario, batched mutations usually are independent 
with each other and need to touch a various number of regions.

We are using the 0.94 series, but I think the trunk should have the same 
problem after a quick look into the code.
