----------------------------------------

Totally agree, if the memstore is 0.0, then we default to the default memstore 
size which is 40%.  So you are always guaranteed to have some memstore.

> Minimum memstore size is a percentage

> We have a cluster which is optimized for random reads.  Thus we have a large 
> block cache and a small memstore.  Currently our heap is 20GB and we wanted 
> to configure the memstore to take 4% or 800MB.  Right now the minimum 
> memstore size is 5%.  What do you guys think about reducing the minimum size 
> to 1%?  Suppose we log a warning if the memstore is below 5% but allow it?
> What do you folks think?
