churro morales commented on HBASE-12897: ---------------------------------------- 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 > ------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-12897 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12897 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 0.98.10, 1.1.0 > Reporter: churro morales > Assignee: churro morales > Attachments: HBASE-12897.patch > > > 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? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
