Istvan Toth reassigned HBASE-28556:
-----------------------------------
Assignee: Istvan Toth
> Reduce memory copying in Rest server when serializing CellModel to Protobuf
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-28556
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-28556
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: REST
> Reporter: Istvan Toth
> Assignee: Istvan Toth
> Priority: Major
>
> The REST server does a lot of unneccessary coping, which could be avoided at
> least for protobuf encoding.
> - It uses ByteStringer to handle ByteBuffer backed Cells. However, it uses
> the client API, so it sjpuld never encounter ByteBuffer backed cells.
> - It clones everything from the cells (sometimes multiple times) before
> serializing to protbuf.
> We could mimic the structure in Cell, with array, offset and length for each
> field, and use the appropriate protobuf setters to avoid the extra copies.
> There may or may not be a way to do the same for JSON and XML via jax-rs, I
> don't know the frameworks well enough to tell, but if not, we could just do
> the copying in the getters for them.
