stack commented on HBASE-4224:
------------------------------
We need by regionserver because doing it by table, its not possible to control
how much flush is done. Imagine cluster has one table only. If you flush it,
then all regionservers all flush at same time killing any other server going on
concurrently because of the i/o load on hdfs. If you could do it by
regionserver, you'd have some means of doing other than a big-bang flush, and
so on.
> Need a flush by regionserver rather than by table option

> This evening needed to clean out logs on the cluster. logs are by
> regionserver. to let go of logs, we need to have all edits emptied from
> memory. only flush is by table or region. We need to be able to flush the
> regionserver. Need to add this.
