Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-13389:
---------------------------------------
Correctness > Performance :) We need to have this correct in all cases.
OK. So lemme file a sub issue to apply the patch I attache here. Not as good as
the original patch, but better.
Here we need to have the discussion about how long to keep the Cells, it seems
we want this less than the minimum time between major compactions (which is 3.5
days currently - 1 week +- 1/2 week) for performance (but again correctness is
more important).
Might also want to change the detection code for whether a major compaction is
needed, if we can rid of MVCC stamp, we should major compact.

> HBASE-12600 moved the edit sequenceid from tags to instead exploit the
> mvcc/sequenceid slot in a key. Now Cells near-always have an associated
> mvcc/sequenceid where previous it was rare or the mvcc was kept up at the
> file level. This is sort of how it should be many of us would argue but as a
> side-effect of this change, read-time optimizations that helped speed scans
> were undone by this change.
> In this issue, lets see if we can get the optimizations back -- or just
> remove the optimizations altogether.
> The parse of mvcc/sequenceid is expensive. It was noticed over in HBASE-13291.
> The optimizations undone by this changes are (to quote the optimizer himself,
> Mr [~lhofhansl]):
> {quote}
> Looks like this undoes all of HBASE-9751, HBASE-8151, and HBASE-8166.
> We're always storing the mvcc readpoints, and we never compare them against
> the actual smallestReadpoint, and hence we're always performing all the
> checks, tests, and comparisons that these jiras removed in addition to
> actually storing the data - which with up to 8 bytes per Cell is not trivial.
