Ian Varley commented on HBASE-5403:
-----------------------------------
Liyin, this issue has been dormant for a little while. Any thoughts on Todd's
suggestion? Should we keep this open as an option, or close / alter it in favor
of addressing it on the replay side?
> Checkpoint the compressed HLog

> Let's assume that HBase replication can be based on replaying the HLog in the
> replica cluster.
> The replica process could be crash during the replay. Obviously, the replica
> process need a way to start from the lastest check point in the HLog, even
> the HLog is compressed.
> So the proposal is to write a series of checkpoints within the HLog.
> Each each checkpoint will have a header with some special sequence of bytes.
> And between each checkpoints, HLog should use new dictionaries to compress.
