Steve Loughran commented on HBASE-20226: ---------------------------------------- Amazon throttle DELETE to the same shared, so speedup will be sublinear, even though the cost of a delete/bulk delete is low in terms of network traffic. f you are doing bulk deletes in > 1 it's probably best to do a bit of shuffling of the list of directories to delete before queuing the operations. > Performance Improvement Taking Large Snapshots In Remote Filesystems > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-20226 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-20226 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: snapshots > Affects Versions: 1.4.0 > Environment: HBase 1.4.0 running on an AWS EMR cluster with the > hbase.rootdir set to point to a folder in S3 > Reporter: Saad Mufti > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HBASE-20226..01.patch > > > When taking a snapshot of any table, one of the last steps is to delete the > region manifests, which have already been rolled up into a larger overall > manifest and thus have redundant information. > This proposal is to do the deletion in a thread pool bounded by > hbase.snapshot.thread.pool.max . For large tables with a lot of regions, the > current single threaded deletion is taking longer than all the rest of the > snapshot tasks when the Hbase data and the snapshot folder are both in a > remote filesystem like S3. > I have a patch for this proposal almost ready and will submit it tomorrow for > feedback, although I haven't had a chance to write any tests yet. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
