HBase TRUNK has recent versions of hadoop hdfs jars committed to its lib dir. Our WAL (HLog) has been amended so we call through to the new hadoop sync (hflush). A basic unit test that exercises the new sync has been added where a Reader can read all edits up to the last sync and its passing. Next up is testing out on a (hadoop 0.21) cluster to see well it works under load. I would suggest that all who can pitch in with the testing of this critical feature. Raise any issues found either here or over in hdfs. Be aware of hdfs-630 when testing -- you'll probably need to apply it to your hadoop install.
Oh, TRUNK should be back to some normality now though hopefully, its going to undergo much radical distress between here and our 0.21 release. Good stuff, St.Ack
