             Summary: Need to re-use DataInputStream for reading files that 
need replication
                 Key: ACCUMULO-2846
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-2846
             Project: Accumulo
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: replication
            Reporter: Josh Elser
            Assignee: Josh Elser
             Fix For: 1.7.0


In doing multi-node tests with continuous ingest, I was watching the ingest 
performance on the peer via the monitor.

I noticed that the ingest rate had a regular pattern to it, where ingest would 
spike, and then regularly decrease by a (mostly) fixed interval, flat-line, and 
then repeat.

I believe each cycle on the ingest graph is the replication of a file from the 
primary. The reduction in throughput is relative to the amount of time it takes 
to re-read the "prefix" of the file which we already replicated. I need to push 
some more logic down into the AccumuloReplicaSystem so that we can avoid that 
growing penalty for seeking over the data which we don't need to re-process.

The cost is that it pushes more complexity into the AccumuloReplicaSystem, but, 
I imagine that after I write an implementation to replicate to some other 
system, it would become more obvious where the common points live that can be 
abstracted into a common base class.
