Hi Todd. In order to reach that performance ( +1M /sec) did you change any Kudu parameters? I read some papers about flush parameters in tablet servers.
I started playing with Kudu with just 2 nodes and my best was 30k per second with 30 columns row. Nothing compared with your testing but any advice would be great. Thank all you guys for sharing your thoughts.
