Hi everyone,
What would be the next thing to do to get this patch in (now that all the
lights are green ;) )?
Thanks,

> A scan operation iterates over all rows of a table or a subrange of the
> table. The synchronous nature in which the data is served at the client side
> hinders the speed the application traverses the data: it increases the
> overall processing time, and may cause a great variance in the times the
> application waits for the next piece of data.
> The scanner next() method at the client side invokes an RPC to the
> regionserver and then stores the results in a cache. The application can
> specify how many rows will be transmitted per RPC; by default this is set to
> 100 rows.
> The cache can be considered as a producer-consumer queue, where the hbase
> client pushes the data to the queue and the application consumes it.
> Currently this queue is synchronous, i.e., blocking. More specifically, when
> the application consumed all the data from the cache --- so the cache is
> empty --- the hbase client retrieves additional data from the server and
> re-fills the cache with new data. During this time the application is blocked.
> Under the assumption that the application processing time can be balanced by
> the time it takes to retrieve the data, an asynchronous approach can reduce
> the time the application is waiting for data.
> We attach a design document.
> We also have a patch that is based on a private branch, and some evaluation
> results of this code.
