stack commented on HBASE-48:
----------------------------

Oh, and 3., to do multiple families shouldn't be hard; just rotate all files 
when one is in excess of maximum (on a row boundary)

> Hbase needs tools to facilitate bulk upload and possibly dumping.  Going via 
> the current APIs, particularly if the dataset is large and cell content is 
> small, uploads can take a long time even when using many concurrent clients.
> PNUTS folks talked of need for a different API to manage bulk upload/dump.
> Another notion would be to somehow have the bulk loader tools somehow write 
> regions directly in hdfs.
