> This would add a new boolean config option: hfile.block.cache.datablocks
> Default would be true.
> Setting this to false allows HBase in a mode where only index blocks are
> cached, which is useful for analytical scenarios where a useful working set
> of the data cannot be expected to fit into the (aggregate) cache.
> This is the equivalent of setting cacheBlocks to false on all scans
> (including scans on behalf of gets).
> I would like to get a general feeling about what folks think about this.
> The change itself would be simple.
> Update (Mikhail): we probably don't need a new conf option. Instead, we will
> make index blocks cached by default.
