I don't know of anyone off the top of my head who's using anything
built on top of Hadoop for a real-time environment. Hadoop just
wasn't built for that. It was built, like MapReduce, for crunching
absurd amounts of data across hundreds of nodes in a "reasonable"
amount of time.
Just my $0.02.

While Hadoop MapReduce isn't meant for realtime use, HBase can handle
it.
Over last summer there were some benchmarks included in HBase/Hadoop
presentations that showed, IIRC, performance comparable to Cassandra.
