Kzurek,
Just because you turn off time based major compactions, it does not mean
that you have turned major compaction off. Compaction can still be
promoted to be Majors. Also, the only real difference between a major and
minor compaction is one processes deletes. You should really schedule at
least daily major compactions. As for your blocking issue, there are quite
a few things you would want to look at:
How often are you flushing?
How often are you force flushing from HLog rolls?
What size are your flushes?
What does your region count look like as that can affect your flush size?
etc
When I see HBase blocking constantly it is usually a sign that you need to
do some fine grain tuning.
