Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-16765:
---------------------------------------
Yeah... No tests, etc copyright, etc, etc. Was just getting a feeling for what
people think.
Do we need to be more aggressive in preventing the splitting in large clusters?
In a 1000 node cluster even small table pretty quickly grow to 2000 regions.

> We just did some experiments on some larger clusters and found that while
> using IncreasingToUpperBoundRegionSplitPolicy generally works well and is
> very convenient, it does tend to produce too many regions.
> Since the logic is - by design - local, checking the number of regions of the
> table in question on the local server only, we end with more regions then
> necessary.
