Andrew Purtell resolved HBASE-5993.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
> Add a no-read Append
> --------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-5993
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5993
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: regionserver
> Affects Versions: 0.94.0
> Reporter: Jacques
> Priority: Critical
>
> HBASE-4102 added an atomic append. For high performance situations, it would
> be helpful to be able to do appends that don't actually require a read of the
> existing value. This would be useful in building a growing set of values.
> Our original use case was for implementing a form of search in HBase where a
> cell would contain a list of document ids associated with a particular
> keyword for search. However it seems like it would also be useful to provide
> substantial performance improvements for most Append scenarios.
> Within the client API, the simplest way to implement this would be to
> leverage the existing Append api. If the Append is marked as
> setReturnResults(false), use this code path. If result return is requested,
> use the existing Append implementation.
