I agree. We have to make this easier - to configure and to understand. And the
default should be better. Looks like they only make sense for long running M/R
jobs.
Lemme check whether there's a jira already; I'll revive it, otherwise I'll
create one and we can have further discussions there.
Thanks for pointing this issue out.

Subject: Re: How to make the client fast fail
We are using HBase - 1.0.0. Yes we have went through this blog. But configuring
these parameters, we not able to find out what is the exact time it takes to
fail fast. I am really curious if there could be a single configuration to
ensure client level failing? Also it would be great if someone can suggest some
optimal value for those parameters.

Please always tell us which version of HBase you are using. We have fixed a lot
of issues in this area over time.Here's an _old_ blog post I wrote about this:

Using yet more threads to monitor timeouts of another thread is a bad idea,
especially when the timeout is configurable in the first place.

It would be great if there is a single timeout configuration from the
client end. All other parameters should fine tune based on that one
parameter. We have modified simple based on trail basis to suit our need.
Also not sure what side effect it would cause configuring those parameters.
