Andrew Purtell resolved HBASE-32.
---------------------------------
Resolution: Not a Problem
Other issues cover this as mentioned above. Let's retire this golden oldie.
> [hbase] Add row count estimator
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-32
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-32
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Client
> Reporter: stack
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: noob
> Attachments: 2291_v01.patch, Keying.java
>
>
> Internally we have a little tool that will do a rough estimate of how many
> rows there are in a dataHbase. It keeps getting larger and larger partitions
> running scanners until it turns up > N occupied rows. Once it has a number >
> N, it multiples by the partition size to get an approximate row count.
> This issue is about generalizing this feature so it could sit in the general
> hbase install. It would look something like:
> {code}
> long getApproximateRowCount(final Text startRow, final Text endRow, final
> long minimumCountPerPartition, final long maximumPartitionSize)
> {code}
> Larger minimumCountPerPartition and maximumPartitionSize values would make
> the count more accurate but would mean the method ran longer.
