Billy Pearson commented on HBASE-48:
------------------------------------
Been thanking on this one what happens if a region get to many map files
written to it and there to large to compaction and we OOME because of lack
memory to compact the files or will this not happen?
> [hbase] Bulk load and dump tools
> --------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-48
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-48
> Project: Hadoop HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: stack
> Priority: Minor
>
> Hbase needs tools to facilitate bulk upload and possibly dumping. Going via
> the current APIs, particularly if the dataset is large and cell content is
> small, uploads can take a long time even when using many concurrent clients.
> PNUTS folks talked of need for a different API to manage bulk upload/dump.
> Another notion would be to somehow have the bulk loader tools somehow write
> regions directly in hdfs.
