Karthik Ranganathan created HBASE-6770:
------------------------------------------
Summary: Allow scanner setCaching to specify size instead of
number of rows
Key: HBASE-6770
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6770
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Components: client, regionserver
Reporter: Karthik Ranganathan
Currently, we have the following api's to customize the behavior of scans:
setCaching() - how many rows to cache on client to speed up scans
setBatch() - max columns per row to return per row to prevent a very large
response.
Ideally, we should be able to specify a memory buffer size because:
1. that would take care of both of these use cases.
2. it does not need any knowledge of the size of the rows or cells, as the
final thing we are worried about is the available memory.
