Cool, thanks for the poke, Ben!
Last I checked, our version of the LRUBlockCache was nearly identical to
what was in HBase 1.x. I would imagine this would be easy to bring over.
Maybe we can also try to swipe BucketCache while we're at it and get some
off-heap support for blocks.
Aside: it would be nice if we could somehow find a way to share code like
this across the projects. HBase was interested in FATE for some time, but
eventually created their own new solution. I'm not sure what else exists
that we might want to share between projects.
One way to share code is to spin off new projects, like the following :
https://github.com/snazy/ohc
I'd much rather share code under ASF governance. Some code that
started in Hadoop recently jumped over to Apache Commons, maybe that
could serve as an example?
https://s.apache.org/commons-crypto-vote
https://github.com/intel-hadoop/chimera/blob/master/PROPOSAL.html
https://s.apache.org/commons-crypto-vote-result
Maybe we should start a new thread to go over things we'd like to start sharing?
Ooo, Apache Commons would be a nice home, IMO. Keeping it under the ASF
governance guidelines would be a plus. I feel like I had a talk about
this with Billie (and Stack, maybe?) a long time ago. Figuring out the
proper scope for it will be tricky though. Maybe we should already have
a list of initial things before taking it to HBase and others? (maybe
Cassandra would have benefit, too?)
