Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-14826:
----------------------------------------
Ya in real scan case we do seek but then also it is actually fwd only. I was
just asking in generic as we have seek back support as such here.
> Small improvement in KVHeap seek() API

> Currently in seek/reseek() APIs we tend to do lot of priorityqueue related
> operations. We initially add the current scanner to the heap, then poll and
> again add the scanner back if the seekKey is greater than the topkey in that
> scanner. Since the KVs are always going to be in increasing order and in
> ideal scan flow every seek/reseek is followed by a next() call it should be
> ok if we start with checking the current scanner and then do a poll to get
> the next scanner. Just avoid the initial PQ.add(current) call. This could
> save some comparisons.
