Kay Kay commented on HBASE-57:
------------------------------

|  figure which RS had the most blocks local to it and assign the region there

if dfs.replication  > 1 (say 3 , as advised) with N blocks , that would be 
finding the RS with the most blocks among the (3 ^ N permutations) + damping to 
take care of 'hot datanodes' as you had pointed out. It should be interesting ! 



> [hbase] Master should allocate regions to regionservers based upon data 
> locality and rack awareness

> Currently, regions are assigned regionservers based off a basic loading 
> attribute.  A factor to include in the assignment calcuation is the location 
> of the region in hdfs; i.e. servers hosting region replicas.  If the cluster 
> is such that regionservers are being run on the same nodes as those running 
> hdfs, then ideally the regionserver for a particular region should be running 
> on the same server as hosts a region replica.
