             Summary: Consider double-checked locking for block cache lock
                 Key: HBASE-5898
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5898
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: performance
    Affects Versions: 0.94.1
            Reporter: Todd Lipcon


Running a workload with a high query rate against a dataset that fits in cache, 
I saw a lot of CPU being used in IdLock.getLockEntry, being called by 
HFileReaderV2.readBlock. Even though it was all cache hits, it was wasting a 
lot of CPU doing lock management here. I wrote a quick patch to switch to a 
double-checked locking and it improved throughput substantially for this 
workload.
