Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-7869:
---------------------------------------
hbase.regionserver.optionallogflushinterval=0 in other words mean sync it as
and when. So no need for the existence of the deferred syncer thread at all
then. +1 for this Lars. I will make a patch and give. We can clearly document
this. The default value for this config is 1 sec.
> Provide way to not start LogSyncer thread

> In our usecase we want all the Mutations on all the tables to be immediately
> written and synced to WAL. We dont want the LogSyncer thread to be running in
> such a case.
> In minbatch operation we write entries to WAL and we use postWALWrite and
> write some more WAL entries(Only write no sync). We want all these written
> data to be synced as one unit (at the sync step in doMiniBatchOperation) But
> if the LogSyncer thread is running in the system it can come and do the sync
> at any point in time which we dont want in our case.
