----------------------------------------
The doc patch I will prepare as another issue. I see lot of cache related doc
need a rewrite. All will handle as a single doc issue.
> Bucket cache no longer L2 for LRU cache

> When Bucket cache is used, by default we dont configure it as an L2 cache
> alone. The default setting is combined mode ON where the data blocks to
> Bucket cache and index/bloom blocks go to LRU cache. But there is a way to
> turn this off and make LRU as L1 and Bucket cache as a victim handler for L1.
> It will be just L2.
> After the off heap read path optimization Bucket cache is no longer slower
> compared to L1. We have test results on data sizes from 12 GB. The Alibaba
> use case was also with 12 GB and they have observed a ~30% QPS improve over
> the LRU cache.
> This issue is to remove the option for combined mode = false. So when Bucket
> cache is in use, data blocks will go to it only and LRU will get only index
> /meta/bloom blocks. Bucket cache will no longer be configured as a victim
> handler for LRU.
> Note : WHen external cache is in use, there only the L1 L2 thing comes. LRU
> will be L1 and external cache act as its L2. That make full sense.
