Ted Yu updated HBASE-5416:
--------------------------

    Release Note: 
New method is added to Filter which allows filter to specify which CF is needed 
to it's operation.

public boolean isFamilyEssential(byte[] name);

When new row is considered, only data for essential family is loaded and filter 
applied. And only if filter accepts the row, rest of data is loaded.

This feature is off by default. You can use 
Scan.setLoadColumnFamiliesOnDemand() to enable it on a per Scan basis. If not 
indicated for the Scan, boolean value for 
"hbase.hregion.scan.loadColumnFamiliesOnDemand" would be used (default to 
false).
    Hadoop Flags: Reviewed
    
> Improve performance of scans with some kind of filters.

> When the scan is performed, whole row is loaded into result list, after that 
> filter (if exists) is applied to detect that row is needed.
> But when scan is performed on several CFs and filter checks only data from 
> the subset of these CFs, data from CFs, not checked by a filter is not needed 
> on a filter stage. Only when we decided to include current row. And in such 
> case we can significantly reduce amount of IO performed by a scan, by loading 
> only values, actually checked by a filter.
> For example, we have two CFs: flags and snap. Flags is quite small (bunch of 
> megabytes) and is used to filter large entries from snap. Snap is very large 
> (10s of GB) and it is quite costly to scan it. If we needed only rows with 
> some flag specified, we use SingleColumnValueFilter to limit result to only 
> small subset of region. But current implementation is loading both CFs to 
> perform scan, when only small subset is needed.
> Attached patch adds one routine to Filter interface to allow filter to 
> specify which CF is needed to it's operation. In HRegion, we separate all 
> scanners into two groups: needed for filter and the rest (joined). When new 
> row is considered, only needed data is loaded, filter applied, and only if 
> filter accepts the row, rest of data is loaded. At our data, this speeds up 
> such kind of scans 30-50 times. Also, this gives us the way to better 
> normalize the data into separate columns by optimizing the scans performed.
