> The current blocking we do when we are close to some limits (memstores over
> the multiplier factor, too many store files, global memstore memory) is bad,
> too coarse and confusing. After hitting HBASE-5161, it really becomes obvious
> that we need something better.
> I did a little brainstorm with Stack, we came up quickly with two solutions:
> - Send some exception to the client, like OverloadedException, that's thrown
> when some situation happens like getting past the low memory barrier. It
> would be thrown when the client gets a handler and does some check while
> putting or deleting. The client would treat this a retryable exception but
> ideally wouldn't check .META. for a new location. It could be fancy and have
> multiple levels of pushback, like send the exception to 25% of the clients,
> and then go up if the situation persists. Should be "easy" to implement but
> we'll be using a lot more IO to send the payload over and over again (but at
> least it wouldn't sit in the RS's memory).
> - Send a message alongside a successful put or delete to tell the client to
> slow down a little, this way we don't have to do back and forth with the
> payload between the client and the server. It's a cleaner (I think) but more
> involved solution.
> In every case the RS should do very obvious things to notify the operators of
> this situation, through logs, web UI, metrics, etc.
> Other ideas?
