> When a region is split, the new child region for the upper half of the key 
> range is always assigned as null (meaning end of table). If splits only 
> happen at the end of the table, this is harmless. However under a random 
> write load, an inner region is just as likely to split.
> This would explain why we have seen cases where after a split, there are 
> multiple regions whose end key is the end of the table (null)
