stack commented on HBASE-5898:
------------------------------
[~ram_krish] How you mean Ram? It was stuck where in particular? Was it a
bunch of threads getting same block? What did the thread dump look like?
There is some issue in here around the wait/notify it seems as implemented.
The double-checked is probably better anyways but could the issue come back
just less frequently after this patch goes in?
> Consider double-checked locking for block cache lock

> Running a workload with a high query rate against a dataset that fits in
> cache, I saw a lot of CPU being used in IdLock.getLockEntry, being called by
> HFileReaderV2.readBlock. Even though it was all cache hits, it was wasting a
> lot of CPU doing lock management here. I wrote a quick patch to switch to a
> double-checked locking and it improved throughput substantially for this
> workload.
