Vladimir Rodionov commented on HBASE-7336:
------------------------------------------
[~lhofhansl]
Yes that would be helpful for some use cases (compaction + 1 application
scanner). There is a (not so simple) patch in HBASE-12031 that fixes the issue
for all use cases (compaction + N application scanners) but it seems that
nobody has tried it yet. Phoenix parallel intra region scanners would benefit
from HBASE-12031 the most.
> HFileBlock.readAtOffset does not work well with multiple threads

> 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.
