Sergey Shelukhin commented on HBASE-22346:
------------------------------------------
cc [~mbertozzi] was adding the number to received time intentional?
> scanner priorities/deadline units are invalid for non-huge scanners

> Key: HBASE-22346
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-22346
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Sergey Shelukhin
> Priority: Major
>
> I was looking at using the priority (deadline) queue for scanner requests;
> what I see is that AnnotationReadingPriorityFunction, the only impl of the
> deadline function available, implements getDeadline as sqrt of the number of
> next() calls, from HBASE-10993.
> However, CallPriorityComparator.compare, its only caller, adds that
> "deadline" value to the callA.getReceiveTime() in milliseconds...
> That results in some sort of a meaningless value that I assume only make
> sense "by coincidence" for telling apart broad and specific classes of
> scanners... in practice next calls must be in the 1000s before it becomes
> meaningful vs small differences in ReceivedTime
> When there's contention from many scanners, e.g. small scanners for meta, or
> just users creating tons of scanners to the point where requests queue up,
> the actual deadline is not accounted for and the priority function itself is
> meaningless... In fact as queueing increases, it becomes worse because
> receivedtime differences grow.
