Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-6874:
--------------------------------------
Oh, I see. I had assumed the prefetching would be implemented on the client
only (the RPCs for scanning could be scheduled asynchronously, so the caller
never has to wait for them); but obviously there are many ways to do this.

> I did some quick experiments by scanning data that should be completely in
> memory and found that adding pre-fetching increases the throughput by about
> 50% from 26MB/s to 39MB/s.
> The idea is to perform the next in a background thread, and keep the result
> ready. When the scanner's next comes in, return the pre-computed result and
> issue another background read.
