Lars Hofhansl updated HBASE-9272:
---------------------------------
Attachment: 9272-0.94-v3.txt
Patch with fewer API changes.
Still need to do exception handling.
I'll probably go back to the earlier version of having a dedicated threadpool
for a parallel scanner, for three reasons:
# It's easy to kill all outstanding tasks on dedicated pool
# This is for long running scans anyway, so the cost of a dedicated pool is
amortized nicely.
# The scanning does not interfere with the other (more latency sensitive - such
as MultiGet) operations.
Will also make a trunk patch soon. Promised.

> The contract of ClientScanner is to return rows in sort order. That limits
> the order in which region can be scanned.
> I propose a simple ParallelScanner that does not have this requirement and
> queries regions in parallel, return whatever gets returned first.
> This is generally useful for scans that filter a lot of data on the server,
> or in cases where the client can very quickly react to the returned data.
> I have a simple prototype (doesn't do error handling right, and might be a
> bit heavy on the synchronization side - it used a BlockingQueue to hand data
> between the client using the scanner and the threads doing the scanning, it
> also could potentially starve some scanners long enugh to time out at the
> server).
> On the plus side, it's only a 130 lines of code. :)
