Review compaction heuristic and move compaction code out so standalone and
independently testable
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-2462
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2462
Project: Hadoop HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: stack
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 0.20.5, 0.21.0
Anything that improves our i/o profile makes hbase run smoother. Over in
HBASE-2457, good work has been done already describing the tension between
minimizing compactions versus minimizing count of store files. This issue is
about following on from what has been done in 2457 but also, breaking the
hard-to-read compaction code out of Store.java out to a standalone class that
can be the easier tested (and easily analyzed for its performance
characteristics).
If possible, in the refactor, we'd allow specification of alternate merge sort
implementations.
