             Summary: Default StoreHotnessProtector to off, with logs to guide 
when to turn it on
                 Key: HBASE-26814
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-26814
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Bryan Beaudreault


As discussed in HBASE-26522 and somewhat in HBASE-26575, StoreHotnessProtector 
is too conservative. One can easily trigger RegionTooBusyException on an 
otherwise idle regionserver with relatively small amount of traffic. The idea 
behind this protection is good, but it needs to take into account current load 
in order to warrant being enabled by default.

Until it's improved as such, we should change it to default off. One thing we 
can do to help drive usage would be to add warning logs when it would have 
triggered. Operators who are diagnosing performance issues will naturally look 
at the logs and see indication of a potential tool for mitigation.
