First, this value is used in the ZK client that HBase uses to connect to the ensemble.
It is also used by HBase when it starts a ZK server and it is passed as the 'maxSessionTimeout'. See
http://hadoop.apache.org/zookeeper/docs/current/zookeeperProgrammers.html#ch_zkSessions.
For example, if a HBase region server connects to a ZK ensemble that's also managed by HBase, then the
session timeout will be the one specified by this configuration. But, a region server that connects
to an ensemble managed with a different configuration will be subjected that ensemble's maxSessionTimeout. So,
even though HBase might propose using 90 seconds, the ensemble can have a max timeout lower than this and
it will take precedence. The current default that ZK ships with is 40 seconds, which is lower than HBase's.

HFiles this size or larger are evaluated by hbase.hstore.compaction.ratio to determine if
they are eligible. Because this limit represents the "automatic include"limit for all
StoreFiles smaller than this value, this value may need to be reduced in write-heavy
environments where many StoreFiles in the 1-2 MB range are being flushed, because every
StoreFile will be targeted for compaction and the resulting StoreFiles may still be under the
minimum size and require further compaction. If this parameter is lowered, the ratio check is
triggered more quickly. This addressed some issues seen in earlier versions of HBase but
changing this parameter is no longer necessary in most situations. Default: 128 MB expressed

which is larger than hbase.hstore.compaction.min.size is eligible for compaction. Its
effect is to limit compaction of large StoreFiles. The value of hbase.hstore.compaction.ratio
is expressed as a floating-point decimal. A large ratio, such as 10, will produce a single
giant StoreFile. Conversely, a low value, such as .25, will produce behavior similar to the
BigTable compaction algorithm, producing four StoreFiles. A moderate value of between 1.0 and
1.4 is recommended. When tuning this value, you are balancing write costs with read costs.
Raising the value (to something like 1.4) will have more write costs, because you will
compact larger StoreFiles. However, during reads, HBase will need to seek through fewer
StoreFiles to accomplish the read. Consider this approach if you cannot take advantage of
Bloom filters. Otherwise, you can lower this value to something like 1.0 to reduce the
background cost of writes, and use Bloom filters to control the number of StoreFiles touched
during reads.
