Ping [~enis] [~Apache9]
Any thoughts or suggestions? Is the improvement worth it?
> Save bandwidth on partial_flag_per_result in ScanResponse proto
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-18097
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-18097
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 3.0.0, 1.5.0
> Reporter: Karan Mehta
> Assignee: Karan Mehta
>
> Currently the {{ScanResponse}} proto sends out 1 bit per {{Result}} that it
> has embeds inside the {{CellScanner}} to indicate if it is partial or not.
> {code}
> // In every RPC response there should be at most a single partial result.
> Furthermore, if
> // there is a partial result, it is guaranteed to be in the last position
> of the array.
> {code}
> According to client, only the last result can be partial, thus this repeated
> bool can be converted to a bool, thus reducing overhead of serialization and
> deserialization of the array. This will break wire compatibility therefore
> this is something to look for in upcoming versions.
