I use Hbase0.94.1 and hadoop-0.20.2-cdh3u5. The Hbase0.94.1 write checksums in HBase block, so we don't need to read checksums from metadata file of block file. But I find the BlockSender still read checksums from metadata file of block file every time, so the Hbase0.94.1 can't decrease the iops, that is right? If that is right, should I set the hbase.regionserver.checksum.verify property to false in order to avoid the Hbase0.94.1 to verify th checksum?
Thanks, LiuLei
