We can speed up this process by compressing the > HLog. Current plan involves using a dictionary to compress table name, region > id, cf name, and possibly other bits of repeated data. Also, HLog format may > be changed in other ways to produce a smaller HLog. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
