Jean-Daniel Cryans commented on HBASE-8450:
-------------------------------------------

Not a big fan of late 0.94 changes to defaults. Imagine a situation where the 
user tweaked the memstore lower/upper limits to use that 20% of the heap we're 
not assigning, so now it would be >80%, and then deploys 0.94.10 via rolling 
restart and the RS refuse to come back up because of that.

Basically the dynamics of the cluster would be different (maybe in a good way 
or maybe not?).

To be fair, serious deploys would have those configurations tweaked so it 
wouldn't change anything for them.

> This is a critical task we need to do before we release; review our defaults.
> On cursory review, there are configs in hbase-default.xml that no longer have 
> matching code; there are some that should be changed because we know better 
> now and others that should be amended because hardware and deploys are bigger 
> than they used to be.
> We could also move stuff around so that the must-edit stuff is near the top 
> (zk quorum config. is mid-way down the page) and beef up the descriptions -- 
> especially since these descriptions shine through in the refguide.
> Lastly, I notice that our tgz does not "include" an hbase-default.xml other 
> than the one bundled up in the jar.  Maybe we should make it more accessible.
