HLog Compression ---------------- Key: HBASE-4608 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4608 Project: HBase Issue Type: New Feature Reporter: Li Pi Assignee: Li Pi
The current bottleneck to HBase write speed is replicating the WAL appends across different datanodes. We can speed up this process by compressing the HLog. Current plan involves using a dictionary to compress table name, region id, cf name, and possibly other bits of repeated data. Also, HLog format may be changed in other ways to produce a smaller HLog. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
