--------------------------------------
Agreed, that's what I have in my local patch at the moment
> Huge performance bottleneck in HFileWriterV2 in 1.2.6
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-18847
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-18847
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Performance
> Affects Versions: 1.2.6
> Reporter: Rich Howarth
> Priority: Critical
>
> The below code block starts at line 277 of HFileWriterV2.java. Class-level
> synchronization in a heavily used code path has a demonstrably significant
> negative effect on performance. I tested forcing a major compaction with 18
> compaction threads per node; removing the synchronization resulted in an
> order of magnitude performance increase, with the bottleneck then being at
> the disks (where I want it to be).
> {code:java}
> synchronized (HFileWriterV2.class) {
> if (WARN_CELL_WITH_TAGS && getFileContext().isIncludesTags()) {
> LOG.warn("A minimum HFile version of " +
> HFile.MIN_FORMAT_VERSION_WITH_TAGS
> + " is required to support cell attributes/tags. Consider setting "
> + HFile.FORMAT_VERSION_KEY + " accordingly.");
> WARN_CELL_WITH_TAGS = false;
> }
> }
> {code}
