ramkrishna.s.vasudevan commented on HBASE-14613: ------------------------------------------------ I conducted a simple set of tests with G1GC single node tests - with YCSB client and 55 threads. Also I did some tweaks such that the flush from memstore will not write to a file and just discard the memstore snapshot. SKIP_WAL is also enabled. Thro put ops/sec ||MSLAB without chunkpool||with mslab and with Chunkpool||without mslab and without chunkpool|| |1920.0463846930513|1471.2768168302587|2196.79151655224| In my YCSB set up I have 100o columns each of 100 byte length (100KB cells). Coming to the GC pauses in sec ||MSLAB without chunkpool||with mslab and with Chunkpool||without mslab and without chunkpool|| |72.11s|85.91s|87.44s| I think Elliot's point is valid here. We get better through put with G1GC. In our case where we are trying to use Offheap memstore and doing a chunk pool of that offheap memstore is definitely performing better than the trunk version of using MSLAB and with chunkpool (with G1GC enabled). The through put is slightly better 2261.0680948982304 ops/sec than the trunk (no MSLAB and no chunk pool case). > Remove MemStoreChunkPool? > ------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-14613 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14613 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Brainstorming > Reporter: Lars Hofhansl > Priority: Minor > Attachments: 14613-0.98.txt, gc.png, writes.png > > > I just stumbled across MemStoreChunkPool. The idea behind is to reuse chunks > of allocations rather than letting the GC handle this. > Now, it's off by default, and it seems to me to be of dubious value. I'd > recommend just removing it. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
