stack commented on HBASE-10680:
-------------------------------
Do we have to change the hfile layout? If key is byte [] and we mark the file
with the Comparator to use, it seems like hfile should be KeyValue/Cell
agnostic?
> Check if the block keys, index keys can be used as Cells instead of byte[]

> While doing HBASE-10531 we can observe that most of the comparison happens
> between the key part of the KVs. If suppose we need to make use of Cells
> and get rid of Kv.getBuffer() then the Keys with which the comparison are
> done like the block keys, index keys etc should also be changed to Cells and
> internally do the comparison as cell. This issue would help to brain storm
> this and implement the feasible soln.
