Jingcheng Du commented on HBASE-15338:
--------------------------------------

Agree with [~anoopsamjohn].
Most of the cache settings can be set by Configuration in CacheConfig. The 
cache on read can be disabled in Get/Scan.
Is this enough? Otherwise, is it ok to just make the cache on read 
configurable? Or use 0 as the block cache size for that RS/HM?

> Add a option to disable the data block cache for testing the performance of

> When testing and comparing the performance of different file systems(HDFS, 
> Azure blob storage, AWS S3 and so on) for HBase, it's better to avoid the 
> affect of the HBase BlockCache and get the actually random read latency when 
> data block is read from underlying file system. (Usually, the index block and 
> meta block should be cached in memory in the testing).
> So we add a option in CacheConfig to disable the data block cache.
> Suggestions are welcomed~ Thanks
