+1 (binding) - Verified the git branch 4.0.0-alpha-1-rc1 points to the mentioned commit 720bdd19537d2d8fc5c403a25d28d5cff474924b - Verified the GPG signatures for source and binary tarballs - Verified SHA1 and MD5 hashes for source and binary tarballs - Checked LICENSE, NOTICE, and README in source and binary tarballs - Verified no unexpected binary artifacts in source tarball - Successfully ran `mvn clean verify -Psunny` from source - Stood up a local 5 node cluster with 3 managers, 5 tservers, 5 scan servers, and 35 compactors across small/medium/large resource groups - Built and ran accumulo testing against the staged artifacts: ran continuous ingest and verify passed at ~2.5B entries - Verified distributed FATE across 3 managers - Tested manager failover by killing the primary, recovered in 35s - Ran accumulo-testing agitator during ingest for ~2.5 hrs killing managers, tservers, and datanodes. All recovered.
Found something that doesn't affect correctness: - https://github.com/apache/accumulo/pull/6557 fate workers poll the work queue every 1ms so idle managers burn 24-95% of a core doing nothing.
