> Take a highly multithreaded client, processing a few thousand requests a
> second. If a table goes offline, one thread will get stuck in
> "locateRegionInMeta" which is located inside the following sync block:
> synchronized(userRegionLock){
> return locateRegionInMeta(META_TABLE_NAME, tableName, row,
> useCache);
> }
> So when other threads need to find a region (EVEN IF ITS CACHED!!!) it will
> encounter this sync and wait.
> This can become an issue on a busy thrift server (where I first noticed the
> problem), one region offline can prevent access to all other regions!
> Potential solution: narrow this lock, or perhaps just get rid of it
> completely.
