Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-2087:
---------------------------------------
bq. Should we open a blanket issue in which we discuss undoing "compensating"
changes now hdfs has a working sync
+1
Like we did with the compaction limiting thread and region server "safe mode"
after the transition to 0.20.
> The wait on compaction because "Too many store files" holds up all flushing

> Project: Hadoop HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: stack
>
> The method MemStoreFlusher#checkStoreFileCount is called from flushRegion.
> flushRegion is called by MemStoreFlusher#run thread. If the
> checkStoreFileCount finds too many store files, it'll stick around waiting on
> a compaction to happen. While its hanging, the MemStoreFlusher#run is held
> up. No other region can flush. Meantime WALs will be rolling and memory
> will be accumulating writes.
