Enis Soztutar commented on HBASE-10413:
---------------------------------------

Thanks Lukas for pursuing this. Patch looks good overall. Just a couple of 
things to address, then we can commit:
 - Lets make RegionSizeCalculator @InterfaceAudience.Private. Users are not 
expected to directly call this, right? 
 - RegionSizeCalculatorTest -> TestRegionSizeCalculator. The convention in 
HBase is to start with "Test". 
 - Instead of TableSplit.setLength(), you can override the ctor. TableSplit 
acts like a immutable data bean like object. 
 - On some cases, the regions might split or merge concurrently between getting 
the startEndKeys and asking the regions from cluster. In this case, for that 
range, we might default to 0, but it should be ok I think. We are not just 
estimating the region sizes here. 

> Tablesplit.getLength returns 0

> InputSplits should be sorted by length but TableSplit does not contain real 
> getLength implementation:
>   @Override
>   public long getLength() {
>     // Not clear how to obtain this... seems to be used only for sorting 
> splits
>     return 0;
>   }
> This is causing us problem with scheduling - we have got jobs that are 
> supposed to finish in limited time but they get often stuck in last mapper 
> working on large region.
> Can we implement this method ? 
> What is the best way ?
> We were thinking about estimating size by size of files on HDFS.
> We would like to get Scanner from TableSplit, use startRow, stopRow and 
> column families to get corresponding region than computing size of HDFS for 
> given region and column family. 
> Update:
> This ticket was about production issue - I talked with guy who worked on this 
> and he said our production issue was probably not directly caused by 
> getLength() returning 0.
