Gang,

I am fooling around a little bit with Hadoop's HBase, and wonder if
anyone here has real-life experience with it.
http://hadoop.apache.org/hbase

Performance doesn't seem to be "great" for a single instance, single
client, single thread.

On my MacBook Pro.
Creating 1000 objects of 10,000 bytes = ~900ms
Reading the same 1000 objects  = ~1500ms

But since Hadoop (and I presume HBase) is targeting huge concurrent
scale, it is a good contender for highly distributed and eventually
consistent systems.
There seems to be an annoying aspect of unittesting our code, as I
can't find an easy way to deploy a test environment without HBase
installation... But that is perhaps minor in the overall picture.

But as I said, I would like to hear from anyone with real experience.

Cheers
