Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-17662:
----------------------------------------

I dont think she is saying to skip the flush as such.. Ya when the size is more 
than memstore size, we will need a flush (FLush to disk)..  Here she mean abt 
the in memory flush (This happens when memstore size reaches 25% of the region 
flush size - Default).  Make sense boss?

> Disable in-memory flush when replaying from WAL

> When replaying the edits from WAL, the region's updateLock is not taken, 
> because a single threaded action is assumed. However, the thread-safeness of 
> the in-memory flush of CompactingMemStore is based on taking the region's 
> updateLock. 
> The in-memory flush can be skipped in the replay time (anyway everything is 
> flushed to disk just after the replay). Therefore it is acceptable to just 
> skip the in-memory flush action while the updates come as part of replay from 
> WAL.
