Is there a way to release the accumulated Put Requests in RegionClient

[Johny Rufus]

Hi,

Would be great to have some clarification on a couple of issues am facing.

1)When the RPC call to the HBase cluster fails, the putRequests keep getting accumulated in rpcs_inflight( in our case, to the tune of 1.5 GB) 

Is there any way to release the resources held by the async Hbase client ?

Calling the client.shutdown() does not seem to do the trick. 

2) When Client.shutdown() is called, releaseExternalResources() is overridden to a No-Op.

Every time the shutdown() is called and we create a new client, there is an FD leak.

Would like to know if there is a way to get around these two issues.

Thanks,

Rufus
