             Summary: PeriodicMemstoreFlusher is causing excessive flushes when 
back-in-time inserts are happening
                 Key: HBASE-15973
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-15973
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Enis Soztutar
             Fix For: 2.0.0, 1.3.0, 1.4.0


In a production cluster, we have noticed a case where flushes were happening 
for 200-400KB in sizes. Turns out the periodic memstore flusher is force 
flushing because cells with older timestamps (in this case days old) were being 
inserted. 

We have periodic memstore flusher with 1 hour defaulted, so in a case where 
replication is lagging, or phoenix secondary index rebuild or the user doing 
back-in-time inserts with cell timestamps older than 1 hour, we will flush 
extremely frequently.
