Daniel Pol commented on HBASE-15314:
------------------------------------

If I understand the code correctly, you fill one file before you switch to the 
next one. For performance reasons I would recommend filling all files at once 
in parallel. Take for example a 100GB bucketcache on 4 files (25GB per file), 
each file on a separate physical disk. If your bucketcache usedsize is only 
20GB you get the performance of a single physical disk with the proposed patch. 
If you use all files in parallel you get the performance of all 4 disks. 

> Allow more than one backing file in bucketcache

> Allow bucketcache use more than just one backing file: e.g. chassis has more 
> than one SSD in it.
