Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-5699:
--------------------------------------

Good point.

Was referring to the general feature, not necessarily WAL/Region.
It's a trade off: Batching vs. parallel writes (just to state the obvious)

Do we batch beyond a region normally, though? Maybe during cache flush.

Yeah, WAL/Region with sync is probably not a good idea, there just won't be 
enough spindles in the HDFS cluster to absorb that.

So what's a good heuristic for the number of WALs? Maybe (assuming good block 
distribution and that HBase is the only user of the cluster) it should be 
around #spindles/#replicas...?
