Other related features and TODOs: 1. Vuk Ercegovac [[MailTo(vercego AT SPAMFREE us DOT ibm DOT com)]] of IBM Almaden Research pointed out that keeping HBase HRegion edit logs in HDFS is currently flawed. HBase writes edits to logs and to a memcache. The 'atomic' write to the log is meant to serve as insurance against abnormal !RegionServer exit: on startup, the log is rerun to reconstruct an HRegion's last wholesome state. But files in HDFS do not 'exist' until they are cleanly closed -- something that will not happen if !RegionServer exits without running its 'close'. 1. The HMemcache lookup structure is relatively inefficient - 1. File compaction is relatively slow; we should have a more conservative algorithm for deciding when to apply compaction. Same for region splits. - 1. For the getFull() operation, use of Bloom filters would speed things up (See [https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1415 HADOOP-1415]) 1. Implement some kind of block caching in HRegion. While the DFS isn't hitting the disk to fetch blocks, HRegion is making IPC calls to DFS (via !MapFile) - 1. Investigate possible performance problem or memory management issue related to random reads. As more and more random reads are done, performance slows down and the memory footprint increases (I see OOMEs running randomRead test -- stack). + 1.

Profile. Bulk of time seems to be spent RPC'ing. Improve RPC or amend how hbase uses RPC. [[Anchor(comments)]]
