> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 1.1.0
> Reporter: Guanghao Zhang
> Assignee: Ashish Singhi
> Fix For: 2.0.0, 1.2.0, 1.1.1

>
> While using the patch in HBASE-11598 , I found that RateLimiter can't to
> limit the rate right.
> {code}
> /**
> * given the time interval, are there enough available resources to allow
> execution?
> * @param now the current timestamp
> * @param lastTs the timestamp of the last update
> * @param amount the number of required resources
> * @return true if there are enough available resources, otherwise false
> */
> public synchronized boolean canExecute(final long now, final long lastTs,
> final long amount) {
> return avail >= amount ? true : refill(now, lastTs) >= amount;
> }
> {code}
> When avail >= amount, avail can't be refill. But in the next time to call
> canExecute, lastTs maybe update. So avail will waste some time to refill.
> Even we use smaller rate than the limit, the canExecute will return false.
