Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-4608:
--------------------------------------
It occurred to me yesterday that we should clear the dictionaries after each
successful memstore flush...?
Otherwise we might have to go further back in the log than necessary in order
to replay.
I realize memstore flushes a pre region, whereas the WAL is per region server,
still it seems prudent to reset the dictionary after each flush. Thoughts?

> The current bottleneck to HBase write speed is replicating the WAL appends
