Hi All,
Today I stumble upon this error:
Error: java.io.IOException: java.io.IOException:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: KeyValue size too large

After looking into the source code, it appears this is a constraint impose by
hbase.client.keyvalue.maxsize = 10485760.
>From the parameter description:
Specifies the combined maximum allowed size of a KeyValue instance. This is to
set an upper boundary for a single entry saved in a storage file. Since they
cannot be split it helps avoiding that a region cannot be split any further
because the data is too large. It seems wise to set this to a fraction of the
maximum region size. Setting it to zero or less disables the check.
If I set the table's region size to be maximum 20GB before splitting, could I
set the hbase.client.keyvalue.maxsize to a larger value? Such as: 200 MB
One more thing, when I looked into HTable.java source code, it appears that the
key value size is checked before compression, is this true?
I think it should be more reasonable to check the size after compression, no?
Best regards,
Henry Hung
