.Default Compaction Throughput
HBase 2.x comes with default limits to the speed at which compactions can execute. This
limit is defined per RegionServer. In previous versions of HBase, there was no limit to
the speed at which a compaction could run by default. Applying a limit to the throughput of
a compaction should ensure more stable operations from RegionServers.
Take care to notice that this limit is _per RegionServer_, not _per compaction_.
The throughput limit is defined as a range of bytes written per second, and is
allowed to vary within the given lower and upper bound. RegionServers observe the
current throughput of a compaction and apply a linear formula to adjust the allowed
throughput, within the lower and upper bound, with respect to external pressure.
For compactions, external pressure is defined as the number of store files with
respect to the maximum number of allowed store files. The more store files, the
higher the compaction pressure.
Configuration of this throughput is governed by the following properties.
- The lower bound is defined by `hbase.hstore.compaction.throughput.lower.bound`
and defaults to 10 MB/s (`10485760`).
- The upper bound is defined by `hbase.hstore.compaction.throughput.higher.bound`
and defaults to 20 MB/s (`20971520`).
To revert this behavior to the unlimited compaction throughput of earlier versions
of HBase, please set the following property to the implementation that applies no
limits to compactions.
`hbase.regionserver.throughput.controller=org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.throttle.NoLimitThroughputController`
