Long client pauses with compression

2011-03-13 Thread Bryan Keller
I am using the Java client API to write 10,000 rows with about 6000 columns each, via 8 threads making multiple calls to the HTable.put(ListPut) method. I start with an empty table with one column family and no regions pre-created. With compression turned off, I am seeing very stable

Has anyone tried the zig-zag merge join algorithm that Google uses to do something similar with their AppEngine data store (BigTable)? It's described here starting on slide 29: http://www.scribd.com/doc/16952419/Building-scalable-complex-apps-on-App-Engine

Well, since you can start iterating from any point, you can just do a map-reduce over the larger table. In each mapper, on the first call, initialize a scanner into the smaller table to start with the key that you get from the larger table. Each time you get a sequential key from the master

Hi, We are experiencing the same issue. Have experimented with the memory settings also but still get the same problem. We are inserting over 1,000,00 records. We find that it freezes as below but also, after running for some time, the entire connectivity dies. Would be interested in any progress

Thanks Michael, Hmm, but I guess; earlier the secondary index feature was the part of HBase release, as exposed Java API's. In release 0.20.x. There was a bug as well to support that, which is fixed. HBASE-883. Authors/Users/Michael, Whereas for 0.90.0 onwards there is no direct support as
