Vladimir Rodionov commented on HBASE-11331:
-------------------------------------------
[~ndimiduk], where do you keep decompressed blocks? In a fast on heap cache?
You do not have to decompress block every time you access it - only once and
all subsequent scanner.next will read from decompressed block. Sorry, I am not
following you here.

> Maintaining data in its compressed form in the block cache will greatly
> increase our effective blockcache size and should show a meaning improvement
> in cache hit rates in well designed applications. The idea here is to lazily
> decompress/decrypt blocks when they're consumed, rather than as soon as
> they're pulled off of disk.
> This is related to but less invasive than HBASE-8894.
