Jonathan Gray commented on HBASE-1535:
--------------------------------------

Wowsa.

{noformat}
Import test, single client.  10 rows, each with 2M columns.  Qualifiers are 8 
bytes, values are 256 bytes.

[writeToWAL = true]
Inserted 10 rows each with 2000000 total columns in 792979ms (79297.9ms/row)

[writeToWAL = false]
Inserted 10 rows each with 2000000 total columns in 321308ms (32130.8ms/row)
{noformat}

Over 2X improvement in import speed.

> Add client ability to perform mutations without the WAL

>    Affects Versions: 0.20.0

>             Fix For: 0.20.1

> There are a number of cases where a client might not want/need its edits to 
> be written into the HLog.  The most obvious use of this would be during a 
> bulk import where we want the best performance possible and data loss is 
> acceptable (can rerun the import).
> Does this become a flag on Put or a special mode of HTable?
