Feng Honghua created HBASE-10487: ------------------------------------ Summary: Avoid allocating new KeyValue for appended kvs which don't have existing(old) values Key: HBASE-10487 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10487 Project: HBase Issue Type: Improvement Components: regionserver Reporter: Feng Honghua Assignee: Feng Honghua
in HRegion.append, a new KeyValue will be allocated no matter there is existing kv for the appended cell, we can improve here by avoiding the allocating of new KeyValue for kv without existing value by reusing the passed-in kv and only update its timestamp to 'now'(its original timestamp is latest, so can be updated) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
