nkeywal commented on HBASE-7243: -------------------------------- Yep, 1 region server should be fast enough. I think you could do the test with 1000 regions: it should push the system enough while being reliable in the results shown. To determine the max time, I think there is no other way than trying and then add a 50% security. To lower variance, I personally use a ramdisk, but it's not something easy to generalize... You can set a timeout in junit btw: @Test(timeout=10000) This patch will be very useful to detect errors sooner (and before go live :-) > Test for creating a large number of regions > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-7243 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7243 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Region Assignment, regionserver, test > Reporter: Enis Soztutar > Assignee: Nick Dimiduk > Labels: noob > Fix For: 0.96.0 > > Attachments: 7243-integration-test-many-splits.diff > > > After HBASE-7220, I think it will be good to write a unit test/IT to create a > large number of regions. We can put a reasonable timeout to the test. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
