I think we need some additional metrics for number of outstanding (delayed) 
calls... how do we debug cases where calls are getting orphaned?

    RPC calls can return Writables or any java primitive supported by 
ObjectWritable.
    
    So, this should probably be Object result.

    this isn't your code... but this expression is always true!

    this is a no-op. need proper error handling



src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/ipc/HBaseServer.java
<https://reviews.apache.org/r/1174/#comment2478>

    assert this.delayResponse



src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/ipc/HBaseServer.java
<https://reviews.apache.org/r/1174/#comment2479>

    assert !delayResponse



src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/ipc/HBaseServer.java
<https://reviews.apache.org/r/1174/#comment2480>

    if !delayResponse, would we ever have response == null?

    shouldn't this just be a call to enqueueInSelector now?

bq.  Summary
bq.  -------
bq.  
bq.  Free up RPC server Handler thread if the called routine specifies the call 
should be delayed. The RPC client sees no difference, changes are server-side 
only. This is based on the previous submitted patch from Dhruba.
