Accumulo Colleagues,
  I am trying to optimize my ingest into a single node Accumulo instance 
running on a 32 core node with 96 GB of RAM.  I am seeing the follow ingest 
variations as a I change the number of ingest processes (see attached):

-------------------------------------
Ingestors, Ingest rate
-------------------------------------
1, 60K inserts/sec (stable)
2, 120K inserts/sec (stable)
3, 60K to 180K inserts/sec
4, 90K to 220K inserts/sec
8, 80K to 280K inserts/sec
12, 80K to 280K inserts/sec
-------------------------------------

The only thing I can see that correlates with the ingest rate is the number of 
Xceivers.  When the ingest rate is high the number of Xceivers is usually low.  
Likewise, when the ingest rate drops, the number of Xceivers usually increases 
significantly.

Question: What role to Xceivers play in ingest?

Request: It would be great to add a plot showing the number of Xceivers over 
time to the diagnostics.

Regards.  -Jeremy
