John Leach commented on HBASE-15480:
------------------------------------
Yes. Two initial use cases would be the following...
Snapshot Isolation: Use the bloom filter to check a bath of keys for an
existing record (conflict detection).
Bloom Join: Apply the bloom filters to restrict elements from the shuffle.
> Bloom Filter check needs to be more efficient for array

> It is currently inefficient to do lots of bloom filter checks. Each check has
> overhead like going to the block cache to retrieve the block and recording
> metrics. It would be good to have one bloom filter check api that does a
> bunch of checks without so much block retrieval and metrics updates.
