> From which we found the "number_of_rows" is as big as {{Integer.MAX_VALUE}}
> And we also observed a long filter list on the customized scan. After
> checking application code we confirmed that there's no {{Scan.setCaching}} or
> {{hbase.client.scanner.caching}} setting on client side, so it turns out
> using the default value the caching for Scan will be Integer.MAX_VALUE, which
> is really a big surprise.
> After checking code and commit history, I found it's HBASE-11544 which
> changes {{HConstants.DEFAULT_HBASE_CLIENT_SCANNER_CACHING}} from 100 to
> Integer.MAX_VALUE, and from the release note there I could see below notation:
> {noformat}
> Scan caching default has been changed to Integer.Max_Value
> This value works together with the new maxResultSize value from HBASE-12976
> (defaults to 2MB)
> Results returned from server on basis of size rather than number of rows
> Provides better use of network since row size varies amongst tables
> {noformat}
> And I'm afraid this lacks of consideration of the case of scan with filters,
> which may involve many rows but only return with a small result.
> What's more, we still have below comment/code in {{Scan.java}}
> {code}
> /*
> * -1 means no caching
> */
> private int caching = -1;
> {code}
> But actually the implementation does not follow (instead of no caching, we
> are caching {{Integer.MAX_VALUE}}...).
> So here I'd like to bring up two points:
> 1. Change back the default value of
> HConstants.DEFAULT_HBASE_CLIENT_SCANNER_CACHING to some small value like 128
> 2. Reenforce the semantic of "no caching"
