ryan rawson commented on HBASE-2248:
------------------------------------

I had a look at the implementation of clone, and it is really not appropriate 
for what we are doing.

I would like to open up discussions to revert the original patch.  I would 
argue there has been too many lurking issues, and the additional functionality, 
while useful, doesnt justify crippling performance.

> HBASE-2037 introduced a new MemStoreScanner which triggers a 
> ConcurrentSkipListMap.buildFromSorted clone of the memstore and snapshot when 
> starting a scan.
> After upgrading to 0.20.3, we noticed a big slowdown in our use of short 
> scans.  Some of our data repesent a time series.   The data is stored in time 
> series order, MR jobs often insert/update new data at the end of the series, 
> and queries usually have to pick up some or all of the series.  These are 
> often scans of 0-100 rows at a time.  To load one page, we'll observe about 
> 20 such scans being triggered concurrently, and they take 2 seconds to 
> complete.  Doing a thread dump of a region server shows many threads in 
> ConcurrentSkipListMap.biuldFromSorted which traverses the entire map of key 
> values to copy it.
