Thanks! 1.Will write take lock on all the column families or just the column family being affected by write?
2.How does eviction in LRUBlockcache is implemeted for InMemory or multiaccess priority. Say all elements of InMemory priority area(25%) are recently used than single and multiaccess area. Now if a new inmemory row comes will it evict from inmemory or single access area ? 3.Why block cache is single per regionserver. Why not single per region.
