Does the region server hosting hbase:meta have roughly the same number of
regions as the other servers ?
Did you find anything interesting in the server log (where hbase:meta is
hosted) ?
Have you tried major compacting the hbase:meta table ?
In 1.2, DEFAULT_HBASE_META_VERSIONS is still 10. See HBASE-16832

Hi Everyone,
I apologize for starting an additional thread about this but I wasn't

figure out how to respond to the original :(
Original Message:
We are seeing about 80% CPU utilization on the Region Server that solely
serves the meta table while other region servers typically have under 50%
CPU utilization. Is this expected?
Here's some more info about our cluster:
HBase version 1.2
Number of regions: 72
Number of tables: 97
Approx. requests per second to meta region server: 3k
Approx. requests per second to entire HBase cluster: 90k
Additional info:
>From Storefile Metrics:
Stores Num: 1
Storefiles: 1
Storefile Size: 30m
Uncompressed Storefile Size: 30m
Index Size: 459k
I/O for the region server with only meta on it:
48M bytes in
5.9B bytes out
I used the debug dump on the region server's UI but it was too large
for paste bin so here's a portion of it: http://pastebin.com/nkYhEceE
Thanks for the help,
Tim
