Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-14352: --------------------------------------- That's a good point. If there's no advantage to compresses WALs ever, let's get rid of the code. I think [~abhishek.chouhan] found write performance neutral with much reduced storage (20%). Only replication was significantly slower. Would certainly be nice if we could compress between DC when doing replication (but that's a different issue). > Replication is terribly slow with WAL compression > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-14352 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14352 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.98.13 > Reporter: Abhishek Singh Chouhan > Attachments: age_of_last_shipped.png, size_of_log_queue.png > > > For the same load, replication with WAL compression enabled is almost 6x > slower than with compression turned off. Age of last shipped operation is > also correspondingly much higher when compression is turned on. > By observing Size of log queue we can see that it is taking too much time for > the queue to clear up. > Attaching corresponding graphs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
