stack commented on HBASE-5674:
------------------------------
I didn't get the 'reference'. Sorry, that email went over my head.
bq. So are you referring this as conflicting with your 'hardcore production
worthy platform' goal?
First its not 'my' goal. Check out the notes from recent HBase PMC meeting:
http://blogs.apache.org/hbase/.
That said, I thought it a different kinda 'researchy' that was being referred
to. I like the 'research' you fellas are at.
(Pardon me. I did not read the name on the issue before responding. All I saw
was the short description asking for an 'odd', little-substantiated behavior
and I asked a question. Even on your comeback, I failed to check the whom and
was innocently reacting to what I thought was a request that hbase become a
dumping ground for plugins and research)
> add support in HBase to overwrite hbase timestamp to a version number during

> Right now, a millisecond-level timestamp is attached to every record.
> In our case, we only need a version number (mostly it will be just zero etc).
> A millisecond timestamp is too heavy to carry. We should add support to
> overwrite it to zero during major compaction.
> KVs before major compaction will remain using system timestamp. And this
> should be configurable, so that we should not mess up if the hbase timestamp
> is specified by application.
