Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Hadoop Wiki" for change notification.
The following page has been changed by stack: http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/FAQ The comment on the change is: performance notest ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Some basic tests making the '''io.bytes.per.checksum''' larger -- changing it from checksum-checking every 4096 bytes instead of every 512 bytes -- seem to have no discernible effect on performance. + A couple of lads report that hbase runs faster when the cluster is balanced; see the balancer in hadoop, '''./bin/hadoop balancer'''. + + As of hbase 0.19.0, giving hbase more memory for its caches to work with improves performance. + '''8. [[Anchor(8)]] How do I access Hbase from my Ruby/Python/Perl/PHP/etc. application?'''
