Flavio Paiva Junqueira commented on HBASE-2315:
-----------------------------------------------

Ryan: I don't have much to add to what Ben said in his comment. I just wanted 
to mention that in the current patch, I have added a configuration property to 
set the number of replicas for each write:

{noformat}
hbase.wal.bk.quorumsize
{noformat}

the default is 2.

Andrew: As we reduce the number of bytes in each write, the overhead per byte 
increases, so batching writes and appending writes of the order of 1kbytes 
would give us a more efficient use of the BK client. Achieving 1M ops/s over 
100 nodes (or larger values if you will) depends on the length of writes, the 
replication factor, and the amount of bandwidth (both I/O and network) you have 
available. In our observations, it is not a problem for a client to produce 
more than 10k appends/s of 1k-4kbytes, so in your example, it is just a matter 
of provisioning your system appropriately with respect to disk drives and 
network.

> BookKeeper, a contrib of the ZooKeeper project, is a fault tolerant and high 
> throughput write-ahead logging service. This issue provides an implementation 
> of write-ahead logging for hbase using BookKeeper. Apart from expected 
> throughput improvements, BookKeeper also has stronger durability guarantees 
> compared to the implementation currently used by hbase.
