Eric Newton commented on ACCUMULO-4112:
---------------------------------------
Sync'ing flushes was a conservative decision. We should revisit it.
I'm very confident we don't need to flush the start. I haven't proven to
myself that flushing the stop marker is required.
> MinC start/stop updates are always hsync'd

> I was running a Fluo test with 1.8.0-SNAP on my workstation. My Fluo table
> had a ton of tablets. I was seeing terrible performance. I started
> looking at the tserver and noticed it was always calling hsync. I tracked
> down the problem to the fact that when minc start and stop events are written
> to the log they are always written w/ sync level. My poor little tserver
> was constantly minor compacting (probably had around 600 tablets that were
> all being written to).
> I changed the test config to create like 15 tablets and the performance was
> much better. All cores were 100% utilized, which was not the case when hsync
> was always called.
