-----------------------------------
Summary: kudu test loadgen: change default behavior to avoid
compactions on tablet servers
Key: KUDU-1861
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-1861
Project: Kudu
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: util
Affects Versions: 1.2.0
Reporter: Alexey Serbin
In the context of use case to '...generate as many Kudu blocks as possible...',
the 'kudu test loadgen' tool can do better job if exercising a load pattern
which maximizes throughput and avoid compaction on tablet servers.
In short, an additional option (and this should be on by default) should change
the behavior of the tool if running against an auto-created table, so the tool
would:
# create a table with N partitions (where n == number of generator threads)
# let each worker thread insert sequentially into its own partition
Current option of having hash-partioned auto-created table should be preserved.
It allows to exercise data load patterns which involves a lot of compaction
activity on the tablet servers.
