stack commented on HBASE-17882:
-------------------------------
Agreed. Concern is a new version being able to read old WALs. I've not looked
in a while. Would this be a problem?
> Why do the WalEdit implement the Writable interface

> Key: HBASE-17882
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-17882
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Brainstorming
> Reporter: Chia-Ping Tsai
> Priority: Minor
>
> Do we have any use cases? (serialize/deserialize the WalEdit between mapper
> and reducer?) If not, we should make WalEdit not implement the Writable
> interface.
