Binning potentially > involves lookups of tablet metadata and processes a fair amount of > information. We will get better parallelism if we can either unlock the lock > while binning, dedicate another thread to do the binning, or use one of the > send threads to do the binning. > This has not been verified empirically yet, so there is not yet any profiling > info to indicate the level of improvement that we should expect. Profiling > and repeatable demonstration of this performance bottleneck should be the > first step on this ticket. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
