> The current implementation of the memory locking feature of regisoservers has
> a downside of not being flexible to configure for permanent use. Sure there
> is a --mlock flag but that needs to be explicitly passed on every invocation
> and thus require extra steps to be configured for permanent use (IOW, there's
> not a single env variable I can set to have a desired effect). The only other
> alternative -- the explicit setting of HBASE_REGIONSERVER_OPTS -- has a
> downside of being pretty cryptic to the novice user and has a killer problem
> of not explicitly telling higher level scripts (like init.d or upstart ones)
> which user the initial hbase process should be executed as.
> I propose a very simple solution (which is essentially making --mlock setting
> into an env. variable): add a variable called HBASE_REGIONSERVER_MLOCK that
> can be set in hbase-env.sh and has the following semantics:
> * [default] not set: mlocking feature is disabled
> * set but empty: mlocking feature is enabled and the target user is hbase
> * set and not empty: mlocking feature is enabled and the target user is
> the value of the variable
> Thoughts?
