Eshcar Hillel commented on HBASE-18294: --------------------------------------- Stack the barriers for the RS (global) level are more complicated than just a single configuration property. It is some computation over parameters defined by {color:#008000}hbase.regionserver.global.memstore.size{color} {color:#008000}hbase.regionserver.global.memstore.size.lower.limit{color} {color:#008000}hbase.regionserver.offheap.global.memstore.size{color} DEFAULT_MEMSTORE_SIZE DEFAULT_MEMSTORE_SIZE_LOWER_LIMIT and some settings from hbase-env.sh I think it deserves a separate documentation since this Jira did not change the barriers computation but what we compare against them. Regarding the comments on the code I changed the implementation of getMemStoreSize to return region.getMemStoreDataSize() since that what was eventually returned in the previous implementation. I then went and changed the call from getMemStoreSize to getMemStoreOnHeapSize or getMemStoreOffHeapSize based on what I though appropriate for the case. If all is ok, I will commit later today. > Reduce global heap pressure: flush based on heap occupancy > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-18294 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-18294 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 3.0.0 > Reporter: Eshcar Hillel > Assignee: Eshcar Hillel > Priority: Major > Fix For: 2.0.0-beta-2 > > Attachments: HBASE-18294.01.patch, HBASE-18294.01.patch, > HBASE-18294.01.patch, HBASE-18294.01.patch, HBASE-18294.01.patch, > HBASE-18294.01.patch, HBASE-18294.01.patch, HBASE-18294.02.patch, > HBASE-18294.03.patch, HBASE-18294.04.patch, HBASE-18294.05.patch, > HBASE-18294.06.patch, HBASE-18294.07.patch, HBASE-18294.07.patch, > HBASE-18294.08.patch, HBASE-18294.09.patch, HBASE-18294.10.patch, > HBASE-18294.11.patch, HBASE-18294.11.patch, HBASE-18294.12.patch, > HBASE-18294.13.patch, HBASE-18294.15.patch, HBASE-18294.16.patch, > HBASE-18294.master.01.patch, HBASE-18294.master.01.patch > > > 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). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
