Matt Corgan commented on HBASE-9383:
------------------------------------
Not sure I understand where it would be used, but when data block encoding is
applied to a group of cells, they lose their individual heap sizes because they
are composed of diffs of previous cells or references into a dictionary of
common byte strings. Would this return the heap size of the cell as if it were
a KeyValue?
> Have Cell interface extend HeapSize interface

> Key: HBASE-9383
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9383
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Affects Versions: 0.96.0
> Reporter: Jonathan Hsieh
>
> From the review of HBASE-9359.
> bq. Stack: Cell should implement HeapSize? That sounds right.
> bq. Ram: +1 for Cell extending HeapSize.
> bq. Jon: I'll look into Cell extending HeapSize as a follow on. It doesn't
> interfere with the signature and if a older 0.96 client talks to a 0.96.1 rs
> that has the change, it won't matter.
