Maybe output region start row as it changes from region to region with a progress count so we can see it working sense it will be slow.

What you think J-D? How about adding 'count' to shell that is same as 'scan' only doesn't output header and rows? Just the count and time taken on the end?

This was discussed in the thread "any chance to get the size of a table?", counting the rows in a table is not something you want to do with a scanner
because it can take hours, this is why it is not in the new shell.
RowCounter is the way for the moment to count rows with a MapReduce job.

Would you still like to see such feature even tho it's very slow?

Thx,
