> The PerformanceEvaluation uses 1k rows, which I would argue is uncommon, and 
> also provides an easy to hit performance goal.  Most of the harder 
> performance issues happens at the low and high side of cell size.  In our own 
> application, our key sizes range from 4 bytes to maybe 100 bytes.  Very 
> rarely 1000 bytes.  If we have large values, they are VERY large, like 
> multiple k sizes.
> Recently a change went into HBase that ran well with PE because the overhead 
> of 1k rows is very low in memory, but under small rows, the expected 
> performance would be hit much more.  This is because the per-value overhead 
> (eg: node objects of the skip list/memstore) is amortized more with 1k 
> values. 
> We should make this a tunable setting, and have a low default.  I would argue 
> for a 10-30 byte default.
