Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-18294:
----------------------------------------
Ya all that observation make sense. On heap tests u did. The better throughput
may be because of less GC pauses too. We are clearing each of the region much
earlier. We can achieve that same impact by reducing the current def 128MB
flush size also. Just saying. The GC pause issue as well as the blocking
updates issue (because of global barrier breach) can be addressed. As said,
its ok even to continue the old way of check (heap size also check against
128MB) for on heap. If that is a concern.

> A region is flushed if its memory component exceed a threshold (default size
> is 128MB).
> A flush policy decides whether to flush a store by comparing the size of the
> store to another threshold (that can be configured with
> hbase.hregion.percolumnfamilyflush.size.lower.bound).
> Currently the implementation (in both cases) compares the data size
> (key-value only) to the threshold where it should compare the heap size
> (which includes index size, and metadata).
