Even with WAL enabled
HBase version: 0.90.4
Hadoop: 0.20.2+320 (CDH3)

When M/R job finishes loading data into HBase table and right after that 
everything is OK, no missing data. We can confirm that by running  our own 
internal tool.
But when we re-start the HBase cluster and run the checker again we regularly 
find missing rows in a table. The total number of rows decreases in a table.
This "missing rows" amount is small = ~ 0.1-0.3% of a total. After first 
restart all subsequent restart do not affect on a total number of rows. It 
seems,
that we loose only during first restart

Table's TTL = 1 year. There is a slim chance that we load data with timestamps 
more than one year behind, but it does not explain the difference
between total number of rows before and after cluster's restart.

All RS are time synched.

In Master log I do not see any WARN or ERRORs during cluster re-start. In RS 
logs I see a lot of:

This is probably not all ERRORS and FATALs I am continuing investigation and 
will post my other findings later.

Can someone tell me what should I check else?

Subject: Re: HBASE-4120 table level priority

It's up to each committer to decide how they want to allocate their
time, of course, but I'd like to encourage folks to hold off on
spending a lot of time on new 0.94 feature merges until we've gotten
0.92.0 stabilized and out the door. Big features like QoS need a fair
amount of review, both on the general approach and on the specific
implementation, before they can get merged. It's hard to find time for
a thorough review when we're in the finishing stages of stabilizing a
release.
