-----------------------------

             Summary: One block, one seek: a.k.a BLOCKSIZE 4k should result in 
4096 bytes on disk
                 Key: HBASE-15248
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-15248
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: stack


Chatting w/ a gentleman named Daniel Pol who is messing w/ bucketcache, he 
wants blocks to be the size specified in the configuration and no bigger. His 
hardware set ups fetches pages of 4k and so a block that has 4k of payload but 
has then a header and the header of the next block (which helps figure whats 
next when scanning) ends up being 4203 bytes or something, and this then then 
translates into two seeks per block fetch.

This issue is about what it would take to stay inside our configured size 
boundary writing out blocks.

If not possible, give back better signal on what to do so you could fit inside 
a particular constraint.
