Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-12790:
----------------------------------------

bq.  So if there is no 1-1 mapping from Mutation/Operation to RPC things get 
ambiguity.

Yes, and we need to document this, but if the proposal is to only support group 
ID for reads and not writes, then I'm not in favor of this change. Clients send 
mixed workloads to the server. Only supporting reads means only half the work 
is done and the feature would be only half useful.

> Support fairness across parallelized scans

> Some HBase clients parallelize the execution of a scan to reduce latency in 
> getting back results. This can lead to starvation with a loaded cluster and 
> interleaved scans, since the RPC queue will be ordered and processed on a 
> FIFO basis. For example, if there are two clients, A & B that submit largish 
> scans at the same time. Say each scan is broken down into 100 scans by the 
> client (broken down into equal depth chunks along the row key), and the 100 
> scans of client A are queued first, followed immediately by the 100 scans of 
> client B. In this case, client B will be starved out of getting any results 
> back until the scans for client A complete.
> One solution to this is to use the attached AbstractRoundRobinQueue instead 
> of the standard FIFO queue. The queue to be used could be (maybe it already 
> is) configurable based on a new config parameter. Using this queue would 
> require the client to have the same identifier for all of the 100 parallel 
> scans that represent a single logical scan from the clients point of view. 
> With this information, the round robin queue would pick off a task from the 
> queue in a round robin fashion (instead of a strictly FIFO manner) to prevent 
> starvation over interleaved parallelized scans.
