Hello, There is very little information that I can find online with regards to recommended dfs.block.size setting for HBase. Often it conflates with the HBase blocksize, which we know should be smaller. Any chance we can get some recommendations for dfs.block.size?
The default shipped with HDFS in later versions of CDH is 128mb. In highly random-read online database scenarios, should we be tuning that lower? Does the datanode need to read that entire block when HBase tries to fetch data from it? It seems hard to believe that the default block size would be good for HBase, considering how different it is from other hadoop workloads. Thanks!
