> While testing the LRU cache during the scanning I noticed quite some churn in
> the cache even when Scan.cacheBlocks is set to false. After debugging this, I
> found that HFile V2 always caches blocks in the LRU cache regardless of the
> cacheBlocks setting.
> Here's a trace (from Eclipse) showing the problem:
> HFileReaderV2.readBlock(long, int, boolean, boolean, boolean) line: 279
> HFileReaderV2.readBlockData(long, long, int, boolean) line: 219
> HFileBlockIndex$BlockIndexReader.seekToDataBlock(byte[], int, int,
> HFileBlock) line: 191
> HFileReaderV2$ScannerV2.seekTo(byte[], int, int, boolean) line: 502
> HFileReaderV2$ScannerV2.reseekTo(byte[], int, int) line: 539
> StoreFileScanner.reseekAtOrAfter(HFileScanner, KeyValue) line: 151
> StoreFileScanner.reseek(KeyValue) line: 110
> KeyValueHeap.reseek(KeyValue) line: 255
> StoreScanner.reseek(KeyValue) line: 409
> StoreScanner.next(List<KeyValue>, int) line: 304
> KeyValueHeap.next(List<KeyValue>, int) line: 114
> KeyValueHeap.next(List<KeyValue>) line: 143
> HRegion$RegionScannerImpl.nextRow(byte[]) line: 2774
> HRegion$RegionScannerImpl.nextInternal(int) line: 2722
> HRegion$RegionScannerImpl.next(List<KeyValue>, int) line: 2682
> HRegion$RegionScannerImpl.next(List<KeyValue>) line: 2699
> HRegionServer.next(long, int) line: 2092
> Every scanner.next causes a reseek, which eventually causes a call to
> HFileBlockIndex$BlockIndexReader.seekToDataBlock(...) at which point the
> cacheBlocks information is lost. HFileReaderV2.readBlockData calls
> HFileReaderV2.readBlock with cacheBlocks set unconditionally to true.
> The fix is not immediately clear, unless we want to pass cacheBlocks to
> HFileBlockIndex$BlockIndexReader.seekToDataBlock and then on to
> HFileBlock.BasicReader.readBlockData and all its implementers, which is ugly
> as readBlockData should not care about caching.
> Avoiding caching during scans is somewhat important for us.
