Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-14098:
---------------------------------------

Awesome! 

Cache flush stalls can also be avoided by configuring the Linux disk cache. 
Could you do a {{sysctl -a | grep dirty}} on one of the boxes and paste 
vm.dirty_background_ratio, vm.dirty_background_bytes, and vm.dirty_ratio here?

Just curious :)  Your previous comment made sense anyway. Caching anything that 
is usually read sequentially and larger than the available RAM never makes 
sense.
