the time just let me know and I'll get something up.

> 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: 1.2.0, 1.2.1, 1.2.2, 1.2.3, 1.2.4, 1.2.5, 1.2.6
>            Reporter: Rich Howarth

>             Fix For: 1.2.7

> 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}
