Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-736:
-------------------------------------

Given that all data retrieval from Accumulo is returned to the client via a 
Java Iterator, I'm a little confused about the application of such a feature.

If you have many columns in one row, you'll get a Key-Value pair for each 
Row-Column at which point it's an exercise for the client not to consume more 
than can fit in its memory.

Other applications seem to be solvable through a custom Accumulo Iterator. For 
example, if you want to fetch all columns for a row in one call in batches of 
size N, this is easily done with an Accumulo Iterator without any core changes.

Please assume I'm an HBase API novice. Can you provide some more concrete 
details?

Thanks.

> Client application may need to perform pagination of data depending on the
