Todd Lipcon commented on KUDU-1502:
-----------------------------------
As a test, I commented out the memtracker calls and continued the same
workload. Throughput increased from around 700K rows/sec to 1.1M rows/sec
(~1.6x)
> Block cache with churn burns lots of CPU in MemTracker consume and release

> I am running a random-write workload where the bloom filters don't fit in the
> block cache (but do fit in page cache) which causes a lot of block cache
> churn. I'm seeing MemTracker::Release and MemTracker::Consume take the
> majority of CPU on the system.
> It seems like this is low-hanging fruit -- we don't need exactly up-to-date
> accounting here so should be pretty easy to optimize.
