bharath v commented on HBASE-8963:
----------------------------------
+1 [~lhofhansl]. Also we cannot afford to cache it in master's memory because
we won't have it after master restarts/crashes and archiver doesn't know when
to delete the files. So it needs to be persisted somewhere on to HDFS. Fwiw,
i'll fix my patch to work for the 2 failed tests and post a new version soon.
> Add configuration option to skip HFile archiving

> Currently HFileArchiver is always called when a table is dropped.
> A configuration option (either global or per table) should be provided so
> that archiving can be skipped when table is deleted.
