> Multi-column family BulkLoad fails if compactions go on too long

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: stack

>
> Compactions take a read lock. If a multi-column family region, before bulk
> loading, we want to take a write lock on the region. If the compaction takes
> too long, the bulk load fails.
> Various recipes include:
> + Making smaller regions (lame)
> + [~victorunique] suggests major compacting just before bulk loading over in
> HBASE-10882 as a work around.
> Does the compaction need a read lock for that long? Does the bulk load need
> a full write lock when multiple column families? Can we fail more gracefully
> at least?
