Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-12233: ---------------------------------------- bq. Is this a feature branch used to determine whether it is worthwhile to bring back root (and split meta) or a feature branch to determine whether it is feasible to backport it to 0.98? I assume used to determine whether it is worthwhile to bring back root (and split meta), but done once where you need it for deployment. bq. What would be the measure of success? If you end up deploying the feature in your production that would go quite a long way, I think. A compelling before-and-after characterization would also be important, e.g. turn off the feature, deploy a large table, shut down, turn on the feature, redeploy the table, enumerate relevant metrics collected during each table deployment, and report back on the differences here. > Bring back root table > --------------------- > > Key: HBASE-12233 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12233 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Virag Kothari > Assignee: Virag Kothari > Attachments: HBASE-12233.patch > > > First step towards splitting meta. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
