Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-780:
-------------------------------------
bq. do some heuristics so users could specify different values to generate a
list of settings
I'd agree that'd be a much nicer approach. Typically, users want configuration
based on "I have this X memory and Y cores for Accumulo". Sizing JVM heap,
off-heap usage, on-heap cache usage, and compaction threads are the big ones
that we could target fairly easily given some basic specs.
> Accumulo should have a configurator

> We currently have a few different footprints available for users. We should
> use those as a base and allow users to quickly and conveniently configure
> their system for whatever size footprint they want. We can use the current as
> a baseline and extrapolate/interpolate for whichever setup they're using.
> This way we don't have to worry about maintaining a bunch of different sizes
> and instead just have an algorithm that needs occasional loving.
