Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-1058:
---------------------------------------
I don't like this whole approach because it can tie up all IPC handlers, but
I'm not sure how to do better. One option is to fail the insert with a
TooManyStoreFilesException or something like that and have the client do the
waiting, with backoff, etc. However a badly behaved client can still DoS the
HRS. Or maybe it is actually fine to let the store files build up and just be
smarter during compaction about trying to do too much and blow out heap?
