Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-5355: --------------------------------------- bq. A while back I saw someone who had proposed a compressed representation of KV that had 'natural prefix' compression. It took advantage of the fact that KVs are typically stored sorted, so one could have a 'this KV has the same row as the previous' flag, and ditto for columns, etc. I think this was something I mentioned in some random JIRA. > Compressed RPC's for HBase > -------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-5355 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5355 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: ipc > Affects Versions: 0.89.20100924 > Reporter: Karthik Ranganathan > Assignee: Karthik Ranganathan > > Some application need ability to do large batched writes and reads from a > remote MR cluster.
