Amitanand Aiyer commented on HBASE-6813:
----------------------------------------
Overall, we have seen that the update lock used to be held for about 500-700ms
before the diff.
Will get some numbers on how much writing the first dummy entry contributes.
> Optimise the time spent holding the updateLock under log roll

> Log roll entails syncing the old log, closing it and creating a new log file.
> We currently do all the 3 steps while holding the updateLock. This causes
> latency spikes for puts during this time.
> We only need to sync the old log under the lock. Creating the new file, can
> be done before grabbing the lock. Closing the old file can be done after we
> release the lock.
