Yoram Kulbak commented on HBASE-2248:
-------------------------------------
Turning gets into scans will cause some minor functional changes. See for
example the differences between gets and scans exposed in
TestClient#testDeletes. IMHO eliminating the functional differences between
gets and scans will be a change for the better but perhaps there are existing
users which rely those subtle differences.
> Provide new non-copy mechanism to assure atomic reads in get and scan

> 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.
