Keith Turner commented on ACCUMULO-119:
---------------------------------------

I ran some experiments on a small cluster.  I would write 4000 mutations, 
flushing after each mutation, with varying numbers of threads.

1 thread w/o group commit, took around 6 secs
16 threads w/o group commit, each thread took about 15 secs 

1 thread w/ group commit, took around 5 secs
16 threads w/ group commit, each thread took about 5 secs

This is a nice improvement for lots of small writes.  Not sure if applications 
doing lots of batch writes will see any difference, I plan to try running 
continuous ingest with and without group commit.

> Currently access to the tablet server write ahead logs is synchronized.  It 
> may be better if all writes bound for the write ahead log were put on a queue 
> and processed by a background thread.  This would allow writes from multiple 
> clients to be grouped and written to the write ahead log at once.
