> I hope we could strengthen our faith in HBase capability

Us too. Would you be interested in taking the metrics and discussion of them 
that came out in this thread into a post for the HBase project blog 
(https://blogs.apache.org/hbase)? As you can see from the other blog entries 
details about the use case does not need to reveal proprietary information, 
readers would be most interested in the metrics you observed/achieved on 11/11 
followed by a technical discussion of how (roughly) to replicate them. You have 
good command of the English language so that won't be a problem and anyway I 
offer my services as editor should you like to try. Think about it. This would 
be a great post. I am sure, very popular.
