Update.

This method is not called in MemStoreScanner, but direct call to : 

readPoint = MultiVersionConsistencyControl.getThreadReadPoint();

on every next, seek etc
which is basically the same.

All these calls become very expensive when you try to achieve 10s of millions 
RPS in scan operations.

Subject: skipKVsNewerThanReadpoint in StoreFileScanner and MemStoreScanner

>From HRegion:

synchronized(scannerReadPoints) {
        if (isolationLevel == IsolationLevel.READ_UNCOMMITTED) {
          // This scan can read even uncommitted transactions
          this.readPt = Long.MAX_VALUE;
          MultiVersionConsistencyControl.setThreadReadPoint(this.readPt);
        } else {
          this.readPt = 
MultiVersionConsistencyControl.resetThreadReadPoint(mvcc);
        }

If isolation level is READ_UNCOMMITTED than this method should never be called 
in both StoreFileScanner and MemStoreScanner
If isolation level is READ_COMMITTED than this method must be called only in 
MemStoreScanner, because HFiles are immutable no new KV's can be added
to HFile after StoreFileScanner was created.


Correct?
