stack commented on HBASE-15198: ------------------------------- bq. Our aim is to by def use Codec and it is KeyValueCodec. Don't we always use a Codec already? bq. The codec finding in MultiServerCallable to be same way as in AbstractRpcClient and then only we will be doing cellblock stuff. Do we not now do cellblock by default? bq. An optimization is possible with having this Codec class finding in only one place (ConnectionImpl) which will happen once. Once on setup only, right? If a Configuration changes during the life of a Connection, I think it ok that a Connection persist with the old Configuration and that only newly-estabilished connections get the new config. bq. We have to add new method to ClusterConnection interface for that. We do? It cannot be an internal implementation detail? Otherwise, patch looks good. When are we doing cellblock currently if at all?
