Liang Xie commented on HBASE-9679: ---------------------------------- when i filed this issue long long time ago, my thought was that we could impl an adaptive index algo which is similar with Cassandra's, that means if we detect a hotspot kv inside a HFile block in lots of read requests, then we could build a index upon this kv, the most code be modified should the HFileIndex class. But there's is a little risk to just do it only in 0.94 branch:) since we have PrefixTree already in later branch. > Binary search in HFile block > ---------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-9679 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9679 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: HFile > Affects Versions: 0.95.2, 0.94.12 > Reporter: Liang Xie > Assignee: Liang Xie > Priority: Minor > > It's not a top priority issue, seems to me. > Right now hbase do a linear scan to search a key within a hfile block on > interst, in special case, e.g. 100% read scenario or high read/write ratio > scanario, it's useful to do a binary search improvement to reduce the CPU > cost and response time, i think the biggest benefit should be the cpu:) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
