Subject: [jira] [Commented] (HBASE-9778) Avoid seeking to next column in
 ExplicitColumnTracker when possible

Matt Corgan commented on HBASE-9778:
------------------------------------

It would be cool eventually to record block-level statistics inside each block (maxVersions in this case) that can be used by readers.  PrefixTree may already have that, but we'd want it for all blocks.

> The issue of slow seeking in ExplicitColumnTracker was brought up by [~vrodionov] on the dev list.
> My idea here is to avoid the seeking if we know that there aren't many versions to skip.
> How do we know? We'll use the column family's VERSIONS setting as a hint. If VERSIONS is set to 1 (or maybe some value < 10) we'll avoid the seek and call SKIP repeatedly.
> HBASE-9769 has some initial number for this approach:
> Interestingly it depends on which column(s) is (are) selected.
> Some numbers: 4m rows, 5 cols each, 1 cf, 10 bytes values, VERSIONS=1, everything filtered at the server with a ValueFilter. Everything measured in seconds.
> Without patch:
> ||Wildcard||Col 1||Col 2||Col 4||Col 5||Col 2+4||
> |6.4|8.5|14.3|14.6|11.1|20.3|
> With patch:
> ||Wildcard||Col 1||Col 2||Col 4||Col 5||Col 2+4||
> |6.4|8.4|8.9|9.9|6.4|10.0|
> Variation here was +- 0.2s.
> So with this patch scanning is 2x faster than without in some cases, and never slower. No special hint needed, beyond declaring VERSIONS correctly.
