Enis Soztutar commented on HBASE-15950:
---------------------------------------

A bit of hacking, here is the breakdown of various sizes: 
{code}
memstore size=4.5 G
memstore KV size=1.8 G               (This is KV objects, excluding the backing 
array)
memstore KV bytes size=915.5 M (This is underlying byte[] backing KV)
memstore CSLM size=1.8 G          (CSLM internal objects). 
{code}

The real sizes from profiling are (see attached screen shot): 
{code}
memstore size=2.8 G
memstore KV size=915 M               (This is KV objects, excluding the backing 
array)
memstore KV bytes size=860 M     (This is underlying byte[] backing KV)
memstore CSLM size=686M + 343M          (CSLM internal objects). 
{code}






> We are grossly overestimating the memstore size

> While testing something else, I was loading a region with a lot of data. 
> Writing 30M cells in 1M rows, with 1 byte values. 
> The memstore size turned out to be estimated as 4.5GB, while with the JFR 
> profiling I can see that we are using 2.8GB for all the objects in the 
> memstore (KV + KV byte[] + CSLM.Node + CSLM.Index). 
> This obviously means that there is room in the write cache that we are not 
> effectively using.
