Elliott Clark commented on HBASE-8635:
--------------------------------------

bq.Prefetching, however, should help all the time
Get based work loads will be hurt pretty significantly, as the block cache will 
be smaller due to the unused reserved space for pre-fetching.

Honestly the whole on server pre-fetching scares me, and I would prefer to see 
usage before dedicated large amounts of ram to it by default.  Maybe by then 
we'll have autotuning (T-Pain style)
                
> Define prefetcher.resultsize.max as percentage

> Currently "hbase.hregionserver.prefetcher.resultsize.max" defines global 
> limit for prefetching.
> The default value is 256MB.
> It would be more flexible to define this measure as a percentage of the heap.
