Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-10052:
----------------------------------------

Looks like we could do this easily with a bit of reflection.

> use HDFS advisory caching to avoid caching HFiles that are not going to be 
> read again (because they are being compacted)

> HBase can benefit from doing dropbehind during compaction since compacted 
> files are not read again.  HDFS advisory caching, introduced in HDFS-4817, 
> can help here.  The right API here is {{DataOutputStream#setDropBehind}}.
