stack commented on HBASE-7336:
------------------------------
+1 on committing this for now.
On Reader per long-running scanner, it will complicate the swapping in of new
files on compaction but probably worth figuring out. Lets file issues for
further improvement.
Good stuff Lars.
> HFileBlock.readAtOffset does not work well with multiple threads

> HBase grinds to a halt when many threads scan along the same set of blocks
> and neither read short circuit is nor block caching is enabled for the dfs
> client ... disabling the block cache makes sense on very large scans.
> It turns out that synchronizing in istream in HFileBlock.readAtOffset is the
> culprit.
