Dave Latham updated HBASE-3894:
-------------------------------
Attachment: regionserver_rowLock_set_contention.threads.txt
I'm attaching a sample thread dump.
I examined a heap dump as well, and saw about 160K locks in the TreeSet of row
locks.
> Thread contention over row locks set monitor

> Key: HBASE-3894
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3894
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.90.2
> Reporter: Dave Latham
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 0.90.4
>
> Attachments: regionserver_rowLock_set_contention.threads.txt
>
>
> HRegion maintains a set of row locks. Whenever any thread attempts to lock
> or release a row it needs to acquire the monitor on that set. We've been
> encountering cases with 30 handler threads all contending for that monitor,
> blocked progress on the region server. Clients timeout, and retry making it
> worse, and the region server stops responding to new clients almost entirely.
