stack commented on HBASE-14951:
-------------------------------

So, default now is 256 when before it was 32: i.e. usual heap size is 31G or 
so... and the default max WALs was 32 but with this algorithm, we get a max of 
256 instead. Need to highlight this difference when we roll out 1.2 [~busbey].

Can you explain the *2 in the release note [~vrodionov]  *2 seems a bit 
arbitrary no? And if it is to stop blocking because too many WALs, is that 
going to happen now with these new limits?

> There was a discussion in HBASE-14388 related to maximum number of log files. 
> It was an agreement that we should calculate this number in a code but still 
> need to honor user's setting. 
> Maximum number of log files now is calculated as following:
>  maxLogs = HEAP_SIZE * memstoreRatio * 2/ LogRollSize
