stack commented on HBASE-9440:
------------------------------

bq. So when data is on disk, we're pretty close to what we can read from 
HFiles. 

You mean going via front door?

What should take-away be?  What we need to dig in on?  To go faster, we need to 
do the prefixtreeblocks and pull blocks up out of hfile?
                
> Pass blocks of KVs from HFile scanner to the StoreFileScanner and up

> Currently we read KVs from an HFileScanner one-by-one and pass them up the 
> scanner/heap tree. Many time the ranges of KVs retrieved from 
> StoreFileScanner (by StoreScanners) and HFileScanner (by StoreFileScanner) 
> will be non-overlapping. If chunks of KVs do not overlap we can sort entire 
> chunks just by comparing the start/end key of the chunk. Only if chunks are 
> overlapping do we need to sort KV by KV as we do now.
> I have no patch, but I wanted to float this idea.
