stack commented on HBASE-16438: ------------------------------- Pertinent [~anoop.hbase] comment copied from HBASE-14921: "Cells having ref to chunk data (byte[] now). Can we make the meta data here as ref + offset ( 8 = 4 = 12 bytes per Cell)..Ya it is 4 bytes more but its ok and better than 40 bytes per cell overhead. We need to mark the Cells created out of copy to MSLAB in a special way so as to retrieve the byte[] ref. I see that CellArrayMap is in under regionserver package in hbase-server. Would be cool to pull this all out and move under hbase-common along w/ tests. Would make dev easier. > Create a cell type so that chunk id is embedded in it > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-16438 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-16438 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan > Assignee: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan > > For CellChunkMap we may need a cell such that the chunk out of which it was > created, the id of the chunk be embedded in it so that when doing flattening > we can use the chunk id as a meta data.
