Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-794:
--------------------------------------

Chad, I agree that the eishay.com numbers are interesting but are not 
sufficient to make a decision here. This is why I propose to move ahead with 
actually trying to put pbufs and Thrift into a running system as replacements 
for HRPC and see what happens given several use cases. So far we have a suite 
of repeated runs of:

    * Insert of single BatchUpdate
    * Insert of a batch of BatchUpdate, let's do 1000
    * Fetch single RowResult (equiv to scan with batching of 1 RowResult)
    * Scan with batching of 30 RowResult
    * Scan with batching of 1000 RowResult
    * Transactional table / secondary index transaction

If someone thinks the above would not capture enough information in some way, 
please advise.

> This issue considers making a language neutral IPC mechanism and wire format 
> a first class component of HBase architecture. Clients could talk to the 
> master and regionserver using this protocol instead of HRPC at their option.
> Options for language neutral IPC include:
> * Thrift: http://incubator.apache.org/thrift/
> * Protocol buffers: http://code.google.com/p/protobuf/
> * XDR: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_Data_Representation
