Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-10447:
----------------------------------------
Those two tests have been failing in precommit builds recently. I don't think
they are related to the patch here.
I have been looking into the precommit hangs but am not able to reproduce
locally.
> Memstore flusher scans storefiles also when the scanner heap gets reset

> In case of flush we create a memstore flusher which in turn creates a
> StoreScanner backed by a Single ton MemstoreScanner.
> But this scanner also registers for any updates in the reader in the HStore.
> Is this needed?
> If this happens then any update on the reader may nullify the current heap
> and the entire Scanner Stack is reset, but this time with the other scanners
> for all the files that satisfies the last top key. So the flush that happens
> on the memstore holds the storefile scanners also in the heap that was
> recreated but originally the intention was to create a scanner on the
> memstore alone.
