dhruba borthakur commented on HBASE-5355:
-----------------------------------------
>From what I understand, the aim of this jira is not to reduce latency of an
>RPC, but rather to reduce the network bandwidth usage. Ryan's comments makes
>sense: it is possible that in your setup the additional time taken to
>compress/decompress adds additional latency for the rpc completion times; but
>if you enable this on a cluster where the network bandwidth is the bottleneck,
>then there could be a net-gain in the rpc latency.
Todd/Karthik: do you think that the prefix encoding would be a good candidate
for this one?

> Some application need ability to do large batched writes and reads from a
> remote MR cluster. These eventually get bottlenecked on the network. These
> results are also pretty compressible sometimes.
> The aim here is to add the ability to do compressed calls to the server on
> both the send and receive paths.
