Vladimir Rodionov commented on HBASE-20894: ------------------------------------------- What are criteria of "better", [~mdrob]? Protobuf is much heavier on CPU and Memory than java - serialization. From performance point of view, I do not think protobuf is faster, but I would gladly accept perf numbers. Protobuf adds a additional (useless) generated code to HBase code base. What else? Yes, this BuckeCache is totally internal feature which is not supposed to be exposed to a public (I mean serialized data). > Move BucketCache from java serialization to protobuf > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-20894 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-20894 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Task > Components: BucketCache > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Mike Drob > Priority: Major > Fix For: 3.0.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-20894.WIP-2.patch, HBASE-20894.WIP.patch > > > We should use a better serialization format instead of Java Serialization for > the BucketCache entry persistence. > Suggested by Chris McCown, who does not appear to have a JIRA account. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
