Description

The purpose of Rpc compression is to save network bandwidth. For local communication (both hbase client and RS are on the same node), rpc compression is unnecessary as local communication is memory copy only and does not go through nic. Rpc compression for local communication will be a waste of cpu computation power as compress/decompress is cpu intensive.
