Vladimir Rodionov commented on HBASE-7336: ------------------------------------------ [~xieliang007]], I am working on efficient multiple scanners support for single store file as well. We need this for several purposes: * Improve single task granularity during query execution (currently, it is a single region) * Improve scanner performance during compaction(s) * Improve compaction performance during normal operations. The patch will be submitted soon when we get all testing done. > HFileBlock.readAtOffset does not work well with multiple threads > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-7336 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7336 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Performance > Reporter: Lars Hofhansl > Assignee: Lars Hofhansl > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 0.94.4, 0.95.0 > > Attachments: 7336-0.94.txt, 7336-0.96.txt > > > HBase grinds to a halt when many threads scan along the same set of blocks > and neither read short circuit is nor block caching is enabled for the dfs > client ... disabling the block cache makes sense on very large scans. > It turns out that synchronizing in istream in HFileBlock.readAtOffset is the > culprit. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
