Todd Lipcon commented on HBASE-3455:
------------------------------------
Hi Tatsuya. Thanks for the comments. We were actually discussing this the other
day and this morning in IRC and came to similar conclusions. I'll try to write
up a summary of the various solutions and some experiments we can try.
I'm also experimenting again with G1GC - finally got a build environment for
JDK7 so I can add some printfs and understand why it hasn't worked well for us
yet.
> Heap fragmentation in region server

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Brainstorming
> Components: performance, regionserver
> Reporter: Todd Lipcon
> Priority: Critical
> Attachments: HBasefragmentation.pdf, parse-fls-statistics.py

> Stop-the-world GC pauses have long been a problem in HBase. "Concurrent mode
> failures" can usually be tuned around by setting the initiating occupancy
> fraction low, but eventually the heap becomes fragmented and a promotion
> failure occurs.
> This JIRA is to do research/experiments about the heap fragmentation issue
> and possible solutions.
