Speedup LoadIncrementalHFiles ----------------------------- Key: HBASE-3721 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3721 Project: HBase Issue Type: Improvement Components: util Reporter: Ted Yu
>From Adam Phelps: from the logs it looks like <1% of the hfiles we're loading have to be split. Looking at the code for LoadIncrementHFiles (hbase v0.90.1), I'm actually thinking our problem is that this code loads the hfiles sequentially. Our largest table has over 2500 regions and the data being loaded is fairly well distributed across them, so there end up being around 2500 HFiles for each load period. At 1-2 seconds per HFile that means the loading process is very time consuming. Currently server.bulkLoadHFile() is a blocking call. We can utilize ExecutorService to achieve better parallelism. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
