> Key: ACCUMULO-3508
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-3508
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: fate
> Affects Versions: 1.6.0
> Reporter: marco polo
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.6.3

>
> Through jstacking I have observed busy tablet server threads waiting for the
> Zoocache to be updated or even read. Profiling via yourkit indicates
> potential deadlocks when threads wait for a long period of time ( in my case
> my waits were 10+s ) when many scans were running against my instance.
> My patch, which is forthcoming, removes synchronization and utilizes a
> reentrant read/write lock (RERWL) to synchronize the maps. My initial design
> utilized concurrent hash maps, but the design of existence becomes simpler
> and changes fewer by using the RERWL.
