Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-13082:
---------------------------------------
OK... Actually current number: 50m row table, 1 col, 1 version, 2gb on disk.
Local HDFS with local HBase. All fits into the block cache. All filtered at the
server.
With patch: 9.45s
Without patch: 12.9s
(so measures HBase's internal friction, and would be a scenario where we scan
to calculate an aggregate via Phoenix, etc)
So not quite 2x, but not bad either.

> Continuing where HBASE-10015 left of.
> We can avoid locking (and memory fencing) inside StoreScanner by deferring to
> the lock already held by the RegionScanner.
> In tests this shows quite a scan improvement and reduced CPU (the fences make
> the cores wait for memory fetches).
> There are some drawbacks too:
> * All calls to RegionScanner need to be remain synchronized
> * Implementors of coprocessors need to be diligent in following the locking
> contract. For example Phoenix does not lock RegionScanner.nextRaw() and
> required in the documentation (not picking on Phoenix, this one is my fault
> as I told them it's OK)
> * possible starving of flushes and compaction with heavy read load.
> RegionScanner operations would keep getting the locks and the
> flushes/compactions would not be able finalize the set of files.
> I'll have a patch soon.
